About Booti Booti

Booti Booti is a small coastal locality on the NSW Mid North Coast, situated approximately 282 kilometres north of Sydney and immediately south of the Forster-Tuncurry township. The locality shares its name with the adjoining Booti Booti National Park, which derives from 'butibuti', the Worimi Aboriginal word meaning 'plenty of honey'. The area is nestled between the Pacific Ocean beaches and the tranquil waters of Wallis Lake, giving it a spectacular natural setting with very limited permanent residential development.

Booti Booti is primarily known as a nature destination rather than a residential suburb, attracting bushwalkers, campers, and beach lovers drawn to its scenic headlands, rainforest trails, and 11 kilometres of estuarine foreshore. The national park encompasses beautiful beaches such as Seven Mile Beach and Elizabeth Beach, along with refreshing rainforest canopy walks and rich Aboriginal cultural heritage. Those who do live in or near the locality enjoy a quiet, nature-immersed lifestyle, with Forster-Tuncurry providing nearby shopping, schools, and services.

Booti Booti falls under postcode 2428 and is governed by the local council Council (LGA). For state elections, residents vote in the Myall Lakes electorate.
