Where to fill water tanks in Carnarvon, WA

Cougar 55,

You could try the dump point at Robinson Street....also has a tap with drinking water. Have personally topped up my tanks at that location. I used my own potable water (blue) hose and not their hose.

Some years ago they constructed a new public toilet block accessed from Robinson Street on the way into town, south side. There was a tap there.

However the best way to find out is to ask at the visitor centre Carnarvon WA Visitor Centre

Hi cougar- several possibilities; assuming your after tap grade supply . ( helps to have a port filter cartridge set up on front draw bar). Try the servos- there's at least 3 in town, shire has a depot , there's a large local sport complex ( oval) with facilities block as you go into centre of town- may need to arrange access. there's the met and a ARes company depot at the airport ( again-ask the locals) , so on... so on...
call/email local tourist office as well for other or any of my suggested options.
can always try local c/van park(s) as well. I've been there many times, nice for a stay.
for the fussy, supermarket(s) in town sell bottled water.
experience has taught me role/value ofwater supply generally.

for Toorak tractor drivers- Perrier here we come!

pS: going on your comment "top up" tanks, may be worth flushing tank (how old is existing tank water?)- like "old" fuel, not as good as fresh.

Cougar 55,
Drive in to the town reference board, left hand side of North West Coastal Hwy, just south of T junction(travelling north). tap is near hoarding.

Thanks to all those that replied, was there a couple of years ago and sat at the servo for half a day waiting my turn.
You all have given me a few more options.
See you on the road maybe.

Cougar 55,
1/2 lt. vinegar each tank, half fill each tank with house water, take rig for a drive up and down a hill or two, or verge jump will do the trick, flush and re fill all.

Cougar,

Bit OT from your original query, but coming through Camooweal yesterday, and there was a caravan pulled up at the dump site.

As I passed, a bloke was sitting there, filling his 'van tanks with a dark green 1/2" hose, and my thought was: "Hope that's not the hose that people use to rinse out their toilet cassettes?"

Suppose any "additives" on the end of the hose might add some taste to the local borewater?

Cougar, there is a tap for this at the public toilets at the cultural centre in Robinson st opposite Pelican Point rd ( The rd that goes that out to theone mile jetty )

If I'm not heading into town, I fill up at the tap in front of the red truck (behind the bin) in the link below when I buy fuel.

Tap in front of red truck behind bin at Caltex

I've been doing this for over 20 years. (with the exception of the last couple) - correct me if its not there anymore.

Good Luck
