Can anyone recommend any camping spots, where you can have dogs, near the sea, between Tweed Heads and Coffs Harbour.

Wooli is one. Nice little spot. Go there for diving at the Solitaries.

Corindi/red rock is also a great spot if you want a few facilities around you. If you want to bush camp there is beach/ bush camping just a little north of the corindi turn off in the Yurigiur National Park. (not sure about dogs there though) I have forgotten the name of the camp spot, but it is absolutly beautiful. You will need 4wd access and you have to cross a salt water creek which puts some people off, but it does mean less people around you. In reality anywhere on the NSW Nth coast is pretty much paradise, once you get away from the towns. Hope this helps some.

The place you are talking about is either Sheep Station Creek or Pebbly Beach if you cross the creek. Unfortunately, it is in a National Park and dogs are prohibited as they are in ALL National Parks regardless of what state it is.

And yerself. A mate got one on his willy once - after we finished falling about laughing we offered him all sorts of advice on how to get it out, including alcohol, salt, matches and a pair of large pliers - all of which he refused for some reason.

Eventually he went to a doctor who got it out. Trouble was is also swelled up, with not so desired results (his lady might have been happy though! :)

prob not what your after but if in trouble try www.cciansw.com.au
off website can get caravan parks that allow dogs -they can send u 2005 booklet
will be up that way myself in august and having trouble locating anywhere i can actually camp with a dog thats not a caravan park-most likely end up in caravan parks if cant find anything on the way
can possibly let u know late august after ive been through and if able to find anything
mostly national parks and state reserves which wont allow dogs
good luck
cheers

Near Byron Bay & Lismore you have a place called Minyon Falls in Nightcap Np but just near it in Whian Whian SF you have a top camping area called Rummery Park - rainforest area & creek - top spot. If you want to see the falls you may have to leave the dog in the vehicle - only a 2min walk.
