Free camping East Coast

Thanks Roachie,
Looks like the book is available at $46 from the book shop. We will be in your neck of the woods to have a look around befor heading up the center and across to Cairns. Any idea on the average caravan park charges per nite ?

Nuboy, if you go to www.around-oz.com/ follow the links you may find some good free camps & some not so free.c'van park at Narrabri is reasonable next to the council swim pool. most non tourist type parks are reasonable $18-$25 p/night. Have good trip, Bob.

Nuboy,
The cost of caravan parks varies greatly and also is affected by the number of people (ie: do you have kids?). The biggest rip-off I've seen is several years ago when the Woomera c/van park hit me up for $45- for 1 night in an unpowered gravel site. However, on reflection, you have to be prepared to cough up some times. We would normally have just bush camped (we mostly just pull-up a klick or so off the highway or track and set-up a camp for ourselves, but on that occasion we were part of a 4WD Club trip which included a tour of the rocket range and Nurrunga etc, so we had to go with the flow).

we traveled through SA,VIC and NSW during January.
We paid anywhere from $15 a night (Crystal Brook SA) to $58 a night White Ibis (NSW, just out of Canberra ) per night. This was for powered sites with 4 kids.quite often the younger kids were free.
