Hi all,

Recently we camped whilst on the South Coast (NSW). I can't wait for the next trip.

Any recommendations for a place to pitch a tent, with 2WD access, firewood supplied, and a short walk to a beach? Anywhere on the NSW Coast will do including Sydney. I'm happy to park the car next to the site, or park it and hike over with gear.

Cheers and much appreciated,
Nev

:) I thought for a moment you were suggesting Kilcowera, which is a bit of a distance away from a beach.

But here is a link to the Youcamp site.

Diamond Head in the Crowdy Bay NP on the NSW mid-north coast (near Laurieton) I think allows fires in the main campground. Very close to a lovely long beach and with a big headland to explore. This time of the year though - like all off the coast - it will be very busy because of fire bans, and there could be fires bans too. Myall Lakes NP would also suit. You may need to buy a bag of firewood on your way in though.

Cheers,

A tick for Diamond Head too.

Went in there to see some relies once, a few years back, and it was really good.

Was very crowded too, but if you like camping suburbia, then it is a top spot.Toilets, cold showers, and well sheltered from the worst of the winds.

With the way that some build bonfires with supplied timber instead of camp fires I would not bank on timber being supplied at a lot of places.

We were at Farina last year, Kevin puts a couple of sleepers close to the fireplaces & some bogans drove around the whole camping area with their ute loading all the sleepers & took them all back their site.

Much appreciated thank you all for the suggestions.

And campfire, not bonfire :)
