We will be at Lake View Caravan Park at Woolgoolga so you are welcome to join us- just asked for Trevor and Carol and Josie.I will have all my maps and lots of info.4 and a half hrs south of Brisbane.
Caretakers are Colin and Julie
You can then go for a drive and have a look at Red Rock,Station Creek,Pebbly Beach and if time permits go up to Nymboda River-Platypus Reserve
I have been to all and they are all great.
Also
Just on the North Bank of the River at Iluka their is a good camp just before you get into town right on the point but it is open to the surf

Hi Robak,

All else fails you can always join a few members and ourselves with our 14 month old dirt magnet at

Can thoroughly recommend Black Rock.

I have a 15 month old and can't wait to take her there. I haven't actually been there for a few years but can't imagine too much change.

The bit I would look forward to would be her absolute fascination with the sandy ocean shore and the incredible black sand rock structure running north up the beach. When she would want a swim I'd walk/drive back about 5 minutes to a brown but clean calm water area totally safe for a toddler (with parent of course). And at night, when she's asleep I'd hit the surf for some night fishing.

I have heard there are some camping amenities there now but imagine its still take your own water and no electricity which does reduce numbers a tad.

Woody Head is a gem... would be my pick. Good facilities, waterfront, and some calm water too... I went there with my first child at a similar age and it was great.

I have been to all and more in the area like Minnie Water and Sandon River but my personal favourite is Station Creek.
1. It has beautiful big shady trees.
2. It has a beach and creek which is ideal for kids(and big kids) with a sandhill down to the water's edge for sliding down.
3. There are tracks to explore between the camp ground and the highway.
4. 4wd beach access.
5. Loads of wildlife.
It has toilets, firewood, bins, bbq pits, picnic tables. You need to take water.

Pebbly beach would be my pick, but it might be a bit busy on the Aust day weekend. Glorious when you have the place to yourself.

What about wonderful Wooli, right between the river and the ocean, there is a caravan park right on the river, never camped there, but do live in Wooli, Pete.

Personal Favourite is Pebbly Beach. The newer composting loo's , BYO water 4wd access only.

Minnie Waters is good , Decent Loos , and Water close by. 2wd access , but 4wd can be driven along the beach to Sandon River.

Woody Head and Black Rocks , also good , as is Sandon River and Brooms Head.

Problem will be , at this time of year , BUSY . . . half the population of the Inland Towns heads to the coast over this period.

We spent some time at Station Creek this Xmas with two small children and it was outstanding! As sometimes happens, we arrived for an overnighter and ended up staying for much longer. About a 500m wlk to the beach or 100m to a little jetty on the creek. Kids had a fantastic time floating up and down the creek with mask and snorkel, great shady sites, composting toilets and heaps of wood supplied. I can't recommend it highly enough.
