Hi all. Could anyone recommend a nice fairly quiet
camping spot for Australia Day weekend, preferably next to
water. Something within 4 hrs drive of
Geelong. Has to have access for 17ft van and allow dogs. No
water or power needed. Thanks

Hill.

I'll be heading back via Wagga, Cootamundra,
Young, Cowra,
Wellington, then on to
Tamworth and finally
Coffs Harbour. So you will have to wait until the National Gathering for an up close and personal look at Darkie LOL
Cheers Kev

You may also like to consider the 90 mile beach between Seaspray and Golden Beach. There are approx 24 designated
camping areas along the stretch between Seaspray and Golden Beach.
Camping is free and dogs are permitted. Whilst the 90 mile beach fishing carnival is on the same weekend the
camping is on a first come basis but you would be sure to get a spot in one of the camps. You
camp about 30 metres from
the beach all along this area. Apart from the
camp areas near Golden Beach, I have never seen them so full that you couldn't get a 17' van into one of them. The road from
Geelong is up the Princess freeway through the citlink tunnel and out on a duel lane freeway to Traralgon then onto Sale and out to Golden Beach via Longford. It would be just under a 4 hour drive with van from
Geelong.
If you haven't been to the 90 mile beach before, i think its one of Victoria's best kept secrets.
