Modern guesthouse with lovely verandah overlooking bush block, ideal for lazing, dining, watching the sun go down and stars come out.

Wagait Beach Shack is small but tidy and fully air conditioned. Rooms comfortably furnished with all basic amenities, and decorated with local indigenous art.

Walking distance to the Cox Country Club for meal, drink and occasional live music. And a 2 minute stroll to beautiful Wagait Beach. Great for fishermen and bushwalkers.

The space
Wagait Beach Shack is an unpretentious cabin in the Aussie tropical bush, and that it is reflected in the price.

Rooms are simply furnished and small, the cabin is catering more for those in Wagait Beach on a weekend of lazing in the bush, beach combing, fishing or attending one of Wagait's fun art or music events and exploring the Cox Peninsula. Go for a trek or drive through the forest or plains of termite mounds, respect the wildlife and finish each day with cold beers on the verandah.

The Beach Shack is not ideal for a luxurious romantic weekend with a loved one (!) - no chocolate mints on the pillows here! I'd recommend one of the other beautiful Airbnb properties in Wagait Beach for that. We are definitely the budget, easy going alternative! An no, geckos are not dangerous!

Guest access
Everywhere in Wagait is walking distance but your own transport is highly recommended, at the very least a bicycle. there are great bike paths to an d from the jetty and through the forest. A four wheel drive is recommended for the unsealed tracks to further beaches , but unsealed tracks in the forest are best avoided entirely during the wet season - this is black soil country, you might get bogged until next May!

Other things to note
There is satellite to the node wi- fi - speedy but limited and big lag - suitable for streaming movies/web chat on SD / HD but not super HD / 4K 🐢😢
