This is such a fun little spot to stumble across on your walk. An oyster shack in a forest - who knew.

Not only is it unique, but it also offers incredible food, particularly famous for their mango curried prawns - definitely a must-try. The atmosphere is very relaxed, so feel free to wander in with your walking gear and boots.

The shack operates between Thursday and Sunday.

A cool little take away or eat at the outside table seafood restaurant by the visitor centre. The food is fresh and tasty, and strangely perfect after a walk around the forest.

Open Thurs to Sun.
