Surf Carnival Summer 2011

The Surf Carnival season is coming up and so it is time to start thinking about your accommodation.


Mount Backpackers is 5 minutes walk to the beach, ideal for a Surf Club participating in the
carnival. The main street has plenty of restaurants, cafes, fish and chips, takeaways and just across the road there is a dairy. 


Have a look at the dorm options on our website.  We have storage for boards and there is free off street parking approximately 2 blocks away.


We would love to have you come and stay. Early bookings would be advisable. Email us or ring now on 07 575 0860
