  • 3.5/5

    two parking lots with 2+6 SC spaces.

    good option if all the camps along the beach are full.

    toilets by the bigger parking lot closed, the ones by the main building open through evening (not sure if overnight).

    the road nearby isn’t noisy, there’s rubbish bins.

    there are streetlights around the parking lot, so have some good curtains

    There are 4 SC marked bays in the recreation centre car park but all were occupied when we checked so can't comment on the site.

    4 freedom camping spots marked in green- depending on how big your van is can fit 2-4.

    It’s in a parking lot beside tennis court/football field. Fine just to sleep for the night :)

    A great, quiet spot backing onto the school fields.

    Gates close at 9:30pm, no one can get in or out after that.

    If there‘s an emergency and you have to leave during the night it‘s $200 - if you‘re lucky and you find someone to open that gate for you.

    Nice quiet set of carparks, spots in the both of them.

    A Park right next to you and fields all around. Two sets of toilets, one was locked at night the other wasn't! Even managed to get a dominos delivered 🤙🏽

    2 spots in a large car park beside the tennis courts.

    Other 4 spots other car park beside it. Bathrooms are locked during the night so can’t use them if arriving late. Ultimately just an overnight in a car parking lot.
