4.5/5
Lots of places!
You ll definitely get one any time you arrive.
We followed the gravel road on the left hand side of the entrance and find a way to go next to the river a bit further.
Didn’t went to the toilets as they seem pretty far.

Great camping!
It s basically an autorisation to park the car in an open field with cows. It s huge so you won t get stuck next to each other. There are 2 long drop toilets without paper (one can be tricky to find hidden behind a little hill on the way to the beach)
There s no water but recycling bins for glass which is pretty good and show the camp is maintained even if it s remote.
The road to get there is mostly sealed with a few gravels kilometers but no worries,
It s easy
You ll need an other 20 mins drive to complete the way to the lighthouse for the sunrise. (Don’t go there and miss it! :/ )
There s an honesty box to pay.
