Sundowner Holidays from Australia
“The infamous Bulls Paddock off Sundowner Tiona in Booti Booti National Park can only be described as majestic and isolated.
The real time to see what this break can do is autumn and winter with great waves and if there is no swell the fish go nuts here with some great beach and rock fishing.
For more information on this break you can email our crew at Sundowner Tiona on [email protected]
Hope this helps!
