Family holidays should be for the whole family and that includes your four-legged friend. To avoid the heartbreak of leaving your furry friend behind, we've got five dog-friendly NRMA holiday parks and resorts that will welcome you with open paws.

Flanked by the beach on one side and the river on the other, NRMA Port Macquarie Breakwall Holiday Park is a five minute easy walk to Port Macquarie's bustling streets and restaurants. Whether you're travelling in style or budget, this pet-friendly park won't disappoint. With the broad stretch of breakwall and a range of unpowered and powered sites suitable for any manner of tent, campervan, motorhome or caravan - most sites will have clear access to a bit of blue.
