Booti Booti National Park, Nature reserve on NSW Pacific coast, Australia.
Booti Booti is a nature reserve on the Pacific coast of New South Wales, sitting on a peninsula between Wallis Lake and the ocean. The area has three distinct hill formations and hosts rainforest vegetation that adapts to the coastal climate.
The area was mined for mineral sand between 1969 and 1975 before it became a recreation area in 1977. It received national park status in 1992 and has been protected ever since.
The name comes from the Worimi Aboriginal language, showing the long connection of Indigenous people to this place. Visitors walking through the park can feel how important this land remains to the traditional owners.
The park has several walking tracks, camping areas, and picnic spots available to visitors. Wear comfortable shoes and stick to marked paths, especially when exploring the hill formations throughout the reserve.
The park is an important vantage point for watching whales that migrate along the coast between May and November. Visitors often spot these large marine mammals from the shore and witness a natural spectacle.
