About

Driftwood Rest at Binalong Bay is nestled within the Bay of Fires, a 50km stretch of coastline on Tasmania’s East Coast. With its pristine white sands, crystal blue waters and orange lichen covered boulders, it is no wonder why the Bay of Fires was named by Lonely Planet as 2009’s hottest destination and voted one of the top 10 beaches in the world. More recently Bay of Fires has been picked by Australia’s foremost coastal ambassador and beach expert, Brad Farmer AM, as 2025’s best Australian beach.

At the southernmost end of the Bay of Fires coastline, you will find Binalong Bay, your quintessential Australian seaside town, boasting original weatherboard shacks and contemporary holiday homes. If you want peace, beach and bush, coupled with all the services you need just down the road, then this might be the coastal hamlet you are after.

If you are seeking authenticity and enjoy immersing yourself within accommodation that makes you feel like part of the local community, Driftwood Rest at Binalong Bay can offer you just this.  Modest with its vintage exterior and select refurbished mid-century and vintage furniture, you will be able to enjoy all that this amazing area has on show, while returning to the warmth and cosiness of this two-bedroom shack.
