Detailed NSW Clarence Coast Topographic Mapping | Bare Point, Wooli, Minnie Water, Diggers Camp, Wilsons Headland & Yuraygir National Park | Paper, Waterproof Tyvek® & Laminated

🏞️ Explore the Wild Beaches and Rocky Headlands of Bare Point

Discover the sweeping ocean beaches, rugged headlands and protected coastal wilderness of northern New South Wales with the Bare Point 9538-2N Topographic Map, sourced from the official NSW Spatial Services Topographic Map Series.

Covering the magnificent coastline between Wooli and Minnie Water, this detailed map provides valuable geographical information for bushwalkers, coastal explorers, campers, environmental scientists, surveyors, conservation managers and emergency services.

The Bare Point district occupies a beautiful section of the Clarence Coast, where the forests and heathlands of Yuraygir National Park meet the Pacific Ocean.

The map provides detailed coverage of Bare Point, Wooli, Minnie Water, Diggers Camp, Wilsons Headland, Rocky Point, Lake Minnie Water and Lake Hiawatha, together with beaches, coastal tracks and surrounding natural features.

The village of Wooli lies near the southern portion of the mapped coast, between the ocean and the Wooli River. Its distinctive geographical setting has made it a popular destination for fishing, boating and coastal holidays.

North of Wooli, a succession of sandy beaches and rocky headlands creates a varied landscape where marine processes, coastal erosion and native vegetation can be studied in remarkable detail.

Bare Point, the feature from which the map takes its name, forms part of this exposed coastal environment. Its rocky shoreline provides an excellent example of the relationship between resistant headland geology and the adjoining sandy beaches.

Farther north, Wilsons Headland projects prominently into the Pacific Ocean, separating sections of the coastline surrounding Diggers Camp and Minnie Water.

The Wilsons Headland walking track provides opportunities to explore coastal heathland, rocky lookouts, woodland and spectacular ocean views.

Nearby Diggers Camp is a small coastal settlement surrounded by protected national park landscapes. Its quiet beaches and natural setting reflect the relatively undeveloped character of this part of the Clarence Coast.

The surrounding Diggers Camp Beach, Diggers Headland and Minnie Water Back Beach reveal the contrast between sheltered coastal embayments and more exposed ocean-facing shores.

To the north, Minnie Water is another picturesque coastal village, with access to long sandy beaches, walking tracks, picnic areas and nearby campgrounds.

The landscape around Lake Minnie Water and Lake Hiawatha includes coastal wetlands, vegetation communities and natural drainage systems that contribute to the ecological diversity of the region.

Much of the surrounding country is protected within Yuraygir National Park, renowned for its extensive coastline, heathland, native forests, lagoons and wildlife habitats.

The celebrated Yuraygir Coastal Walk, extending approximately 65 kilometres between Angourie and Red Rock, passes through this coastal district.

The route includes beaches, headlands and walking trails, making detailed topographic mapping especially valuable for planning walking stages and understanding surrounding terrain.

The region is part of the traditional Country of the Yaegl people, whose continuing connections to its coastline, waterways and landscapes remain an important part of its cultural heritage.

At 1:25,000 scale (1cm = 250 metres), the Bare Point map provides detailed contours, waterways, tracks, vegetation and geographical references for interpreting this distinctive coastal environment.

Whether you're exploring Yuraygir National Park, walking the Clarence Coast, studying coastal ecosystems or undertaking professional fieldwork, the Bare Point topographic map provides an excellent geographical reference.

The Bare Point coastline contains exposed rocky headlands, surf beaches, coastal wetlands and tidal environments subject to rapidly changing conditions. Strong surf, rip currents, slippery rock platforms and sudden changes in weather can present serious hazards. The Yuraygir Coastal Walk includes beaches and rocky sections requiring careful tide and weather planning. Some coastal access tracks are unsealed or subject to vehicle restrictions, and national park closures may affect planned routes. Always check current park alerts, surf conditions, tides and local access restrictions. Carry appropriate navigation equipment and sufficient drinking water. Topographic maps are not substitutes for nautical charts, official coastal hazard assessments or current emergency advice.
