Welcome to Ingenia Holidays Nambucca Heads, a spectacular waterfront sanctuary positioned at the very tip of the Nambucca Peninsula. Nestled between the tranquil Nambucca River estuary and the sapphire waters of the Pacific Ocean, our park offers an unparalleled holiday environment defined by its natural beauty and iconic local landmarks. Formerly known as White Albatross, this park has long been a favourite for travellers seeking the ultimate “river meets the sea” experience on the New South Wales Mid North Coast. Whether you are waking up to a golden sunrise over the breakwall or enjoying a quiet afternoon watching the tide change in the lagoon, our park provides a serene base for every type of coastal adventure.
At Ingenia Holidays Nambucca Heads, we pride ourselves on providing a high standard of comfort and a diverse range of accommodation options to suit the modern traveller. Our park is famous for its unique tidal lagoon, providing a safe and calm swimming environment for families, while the adjacent V-Wall offers a world-famous outdoor gallery of painted rocks to explore. We offer everything from premium waterfront villas with private decks to spacious, level powered sites for caravans and motorhomes. Our facilities are designed to enhance your relaxation, featuring a resort-style swimming pool, a children’s playground, and an on-site restaurant and bar that overlooks the water, making it the perfect spot for a sunset drink after a day of exploring the Nambucca Valley.
The Nambucca region is a landscape of spectacular natural discoveries, from the crystal-clear waters of the river to the lush rainforests of the hinterland. From our gates at Wellington Drive, you have direct access to the V-Wall walk, the town’s main beach, and the scenic boardwalk that winds along the riverbank towards the town centre. We promote a philosophy of “coastal immersion,” where you can spend your days kayaking, paddleboarding, or simply casting a line into one of the state’s most productive estuaries. Experience the fresh salt air, the friendly local hospitality, and the quiet majesty of a town that truly feels like a hidden paradise. We invite you to discover why Ingenia Holidays Nambucca Heads is the preferred destination for return visitors seeking a genuine, unhurried Australian holiday. We look forward to welcoming you soon.
