The Ruins Campground
Last Updated Aug 2014 | Originally suggested by GreenNomad
Very large and well established beach side camping, suitable for caravans.
Hot showers, flush toiles, drinking water and free gas barbecues are all provided. There are also sheltered picnic tables.
This is a very popular (read busy/noisy) spot in peak times. Out of season, it is fine, and is a stunning beach side camping location.
There is a very large, open grassy area that is mostly level. It is surrounded by coastal vegetation and paperbark.
