Binalong Bay - Bay of Fires
Ten kilometres north east of St Helens, as the crow flies, is the coastal resort of Binalong Bay. Formerly just a retirement village, Binalong Bay has become a popular holiday venue for surf lovers and people who enjoy ocean fishing.
Binalong Bay also borders some of the most beautiful and diverse coastal reserves in Tasmania, notably the Humbug Point Recreation Area, the Bay of Fires Coastal Reserve, with its adjacent extensive lagoons, and, further north, the native heathlands of The Gardens.
