Lincoln & Coffin Bay National Parks - Best Campsites?

Geoff,
We were there this time last year stayed at Lincoln NP in a section called Fishermans point I think. Quite a few areas to camp some newly done up and older ones. All had drop toilets but thats all. We had a fire for cooking every night. Great spot right above nice swimming and driving beach. Go out and find some Razor fish at low tide and cook them up on the plate for dinner. If like us, have no idea about them, or as it seems anybody not from SA ask a local or just watch them out in the water. Maybe google razor fish.
I don't remember any camping in Coffin Bay NP but great swimming beaches. Can camp in town in caravan park.

Have fun

Geoff,

Love your profile pic. That's one thing I still have to do.

Try free camping and salmon fishing at Drummond Point or in the Coffin Bay NP. Best CP I know of in the area is at Elliston. Fish also at Sheringa.

Great part of SA.

Being an ex Pt Lincolner we spent many a day camping in the Coffin Bay National Park....If you don't want to travel to far into the park there is a good camp ground at Yangi Bay, or if you want to venture further in there is a superb camp ground at a place called Black Springs, there are toilets there and an excellent swimming beach, also great for maybe catching a whiting or 2...Further on again you have a camp ground not far from Pt Sir Isaacs, also with toilets, Beach and fishing .....l could go on and on....... If you want you can let me know your email addy and send you a phone number that you can contact me on.

Cheers...... Borgy

WhenI camped in Lincolin NP, I stayed at Spalding Cove, but there is no amenities. If going up the western coast, Elliston has the cliff top sculpture drive plus good fishing. Heading up another 70 km is Talia caves which are caves in the shore cliff face. Further north is Murphys Hay Stacks an amazing rock out crop,across from there is the Point Labatt cons Park where there is a large seal colony. When coming down the east side theres a town called Ungarra which is off the Lincolin Hwy, near there is a tank called Moodys Tank which is a large water tank which was used for the steam railway. The water is harvested from a huge flat rock with channelling around it to feed the tank. Ask for directions in town. If travelling back to Vic from Streaky Bay via the Eyre Hwy north of Minnipa is Pildappa Rock,its the same as wave rock in WA only smaller and it has free camping with amenities.
Have a good trip.

Hi Geoff
We stay in the Pt Lincoln Nat Park every time we go.
We stay at cape Donnington (September Beach) on the raised camping sites
These sites are suitable for a van or trailer or yent. Best of all there is only room for one of what you have c/w a tug.
Beach is magnificent and fishing is pretty good too.

Enjoy
Geoff

Hi Geoff,
Just bought Australian road trips from app store for 5$,has lot of info for Lincoln Nat Park &Coffin Bay park as well. I have recently moved from Port Lincoln to Qld and know that area well,so the info is spot on. Enjoy the west coast it is a great place. I sure miss it.
