Marlo

It doesn’t matter what time of year you land yourself in this idyllic seaside village, Marlo has something in store for you.

A group of children and adults gather on a wooden jetty at sunset, fishing over the calm water. The sky is filled with warm hues of orange and pink, and the water reflects the colors of the sunset. Bicycles and a blue bucket are placed on the pier, and the distant shoreline is visible under the glowing sky.

Experience Marlo

High on the list of entertainment is a relaxing day fishing. If you have your own boat, there is no shortage of places to launch, with 4 boat ramps (Marlo Jetty, Brodribb River, Corringle Slips, Snowy River) shooting you straight into the action. If you’re finding yourself too relaxed with a fishing rod in hand, then waterskiing, tubing and kayaking are also high on the list of optional activities in this town. Combine this with numerous golden sand beaches, surfing and diving at the nearby Cape Conran Coastal Park and you will well and truly be in holiday mode. There are some beautiful walking trails within the area and keen bird watchers praise the species to be found amongst the native flora. The Marlo Hotel is the place to hang out on the deck while enjoying the sunset and keep an eye out for their events throughout the year.
