Relax and recharge, frolic and fish in Tumby Bay

A Magic Shack sleeps 7 guests 3 bedrooms (2 QB and 1 DB/S Bunk combination) with laundry, toilet and bathroom. All linen and towels are provided. Open light filled kitchen, dining & living offers a coffee machine plus a dishwasher and is fully self contained with pretty much everything you may need. A BBQ is provided for the outdoor dining experience.

Sit in the hammock on the verandah overlooking the lawn, a beautiful spot to sip your morning tea or coffee and take in the sun rays. Sit out the back at sunset to watch the hues of the sky shift and colours deepen. Enjoy games, puzzles and books, and if you really have nothing better to do, there is the TV.

A Magic Shack is a retreat by the beach where you create your best life, ten seconds from the lawned community oceanfront. Elfrieda Drive is its own special gathering of families, friends and fishers in delightful Tumby Bay. Elfrieda means Magic Counsel, so when you stay at A Magic Shack you will feel like you have been staying beachside forever.

Grab a rod from the rack and catch yellow fin at high tide. Situated just a block from the boat ramp, follow your GPS 12 nautical miles to the Sir Joseph Banks Group of Islands, teeming with King George Whiting, squid, salmon, seals and sea eagles all year round.

The front verandah is a place to watch the ocean, read a book, or chat with community floating by. A playground at the end of the street, plus safe shallow swimming lagoon beachfront means fun for your precious ones and is perfect for kayaking. For wave action, head further along the shore and bring your boogie boards.

Retreat for long peaceful beach walks and feel the sand between your toes, as you search for seashells in solitude.

Walk straight through to the foreshore and take the sealed trail past the yacht club to the jetty, another playground and town centre, with two hotels, supermarkets, bakery, pharmacy and café, framed by lawned areas and pristine beach to relax and take in gorgeous Tumby Bay.
