Discover the most magical spots to pitch your tent or park your rig on your next Conjola National Park adventure.
You’re never far from the water at this South Coast national park.
Lakes, creeks, and ocean meet to dramatic effect at Conjola National Park, whether you’re looking for a scenic stopover along the Pacific Highway or a beachside getaway miles from the crowds of the South Coast resorts. Take your pick of two lakes where you can cool off with a swim or go stand-up paddleboarding, enjoy canoeing and fishing along the creeks, or explore miles of bushwalking, cycling, and bird-watching trails. There’s no camping in the park itself, but you’ll find holiday parks, campgrounds, and Hipcamps dotted around nearby Conjola Lake, Swan Lake, or St Georges Basin.
If canoeing and fishing around pristine coastal lagoons, hiking and biking along forest trails filled with birds, and swimming or paddleboarding at secluded lakeside beaches sounds like your kind of adventure, drive your caravan over to Conjola National Park. West of Jervis Bay, the park’s two lakes are linked by several scenic bushwalking trails and plenty of picnic spots, and while there’s no camping in the national park itself, you’ll find scenic spots to park your rig right nearby. Check into a holiday park on the shores of Conjola Lake, Swan Lake, or St Georges Basin, where the spacious powered sites have waterfront views and amenities include a swimming pool and games room. For back-to-nature camping, there’s also a rustic caravan park and a choice of rural Hipcamps where you can escape the crowds and enjoy your very own slice of Aussie countryside.
Summer (Dec-Feb) is the most popular time to visit Conjola National Park, but it’s still warm enough to enjoy the beaches in late spring and early fall. Wildflower season kicks off in spring, when crimson waratah and yellow wattle flowers blanket the forest floor, and this is also the best time of year for bird-watching.
