Best for self-contained campers. There are no toilets, showers, or potable water at this Hipcamp.
The 1 acre block is situated on a head land with 270 degree views of the ocean and surrounding bush and farmland. It has 80 meters of beach frontage with access to the granite headland and a short walk along the rocks to two secluded beaches. The site's offers good proximity to all the Bay of Fires has to offer, namely bushwalking, fishing, diving, and mountain biking. It's about twenty-five minutes from St Helens, and fifteen to twenty minutes from Binalong Bay.Bring your caravan or tent to a beautiful headland in the heart of the iconic Bay of Fires, with direct views overlooking Taylor's Beach, Honeymoon Bay, Sloop Rock and Binalong Bay. This is a 4000 square foot block that is half cleared, half covered with native vegetation inhabited by wallabies, birds and wombats. Easy access on flat terrain from the sealed road, and neighbours are far enough away to ensure privacy. Beach access is via a ten minute walk along the road, or a short drive, to Honeymoon Bay or the Lagoon. Please refer to local fire danger risk rules before you make a campfire as this is constantly changing.

Great location and good for securing a spot along what can be a very busy part of the coast. Unfortunately the site is quite sloped and for a large set up you can really only utilize the top of property adjacent to the road. Not a busy road thought. Also for our stay there was a large pile of cut down trees smack bang in the middle of property which was a bit disappointing. Otherwise great sunrise and afternoon wine views

Amazing views and location can’t be faulted - highly recommend. Across the road is a farm with sheep and cattle, and the beaches are only a stone’s throw away. The only issue is that it land has a small slope (which was fine for us) but might not work if you were in a tent) and the downside of the views is that you are fully exposed to the southerly and south eastern breezes

Vacant block with stunning views
The views from this block are spectacular! We had full ocean frontage and even caught an Aurora on camera, as this camp is elevated and has views from north to south. It is just a vacant house block, quite close to a neighbour with no trees or anything in between, but you can definitely set up camp so you have privacy. There's a few prickles in the grass, and it needed a fair bit of levelling, so probably not great for a tent, but our caravan was fine. It's great if you want a guaranteed campsite, all to yourself, especially in peak season when all the Bay of fires camp grounds are completely packed out. You can walk to the beach via the road, which only takes about 5 minutes.

Incredible location, great views and perfect for accessing the bay of fires. Wasn’t easy to find a flat spot to sleep and neighbours were pretty chatty. Poppy was very friendly and helpful with recommendations for us out of state tourists.
