We are a working cattle and cropping farm just inland from beautiful Munglinup Beach on WA's scenic Fitzgerald coast. We offer a safe place for self-contained travellers to park their van, near our homestead, on grassed, level areas. Enjoy stunning sunsets and sunrises, and a peaceful farm setting with distance ocean views. If it interests you, we're happy to show you around the farm whilst you're here. We calve from March on, so it's a bonus visiting at that time.We are around 11 kms from Munglinup Beach and Oldfield River Estuary, 130 kms to Esperance and around 80kms to Hopetoun. The coast offers great swimming, snorkelling, fishing and surfing as well as plenty of opportunities for exploring on foot. There is also National Park and nature reserves nearby, where you can discover an abundance of wildlife, and wildflowers when in season. We do not offer facilities here, just peace and quiet, so please ensure you are completely self contained, and leave no trace.

The best camping near Stokes National Park guide

Overview

About

Immerse yourself in the tranquil beauty of Stokes National Park, where the largest estuary around Esperance beckons. Here, you can set up camp amid shady paperbark trees, venture out on bushwalking trails, or paddle in the calm waters. Anglers will delight in the chance to catch a variety of fish, while birdwatchers can spot an array of birdlife on the water. With campgrounds accessible by both two-wheel and four-wheel drives, Stokes National Park offers a scenic escape for all adventurers.

Notable campgrounds

  • Benwenerup Campground: Nestled on the banks of Stokes Inlet, this site is perfect for two-wheel drive vehicles and offers picturesque views.
  • Fanny Cove Campground: A coastal haven for fishing enthusiasts, accessible only by high clearance four-wheel drives.
  • Shoal Cape Campground: Ideal for those seeking a beachside retreat near excellent fishing spots, also requiring a four-wheel drive.

Tips for snagging a campsite

  • Book early to secure your spot, as campgrounds in Stokes National Park are non-bookable and operate on a first-come, first-served basis.
  • Visit during off-peak seasons to increase your chances of finding an available campsite.
  • Prepare for a self-sufficient stay, as facilities are limited and ensure you have all necessary supplies.
  • Explore nearby camping options to have alternative choices if the park's campgrounds are full.

When to go

The best time to visit Stokes National Park is during the milder months of spring and autumn, offering pleasant weather for outdoor activities. Summer can be quite warm, making it less ideal for strenuous activities. Winter may bring cooler temperatures and rain, potentially impacting access to some areas of the park.

Know before you go

  • Check current campfire conditions and adhere to safety regulations to prevent bushfires.
  • Be aware of natural area hazards, including the presence of tiger snakes in areas fringing the estuary.
  • Standard park entry fees apply; ensure you have a valid park pass or pay upon arrival.
  • Access to some campgrounds requires a high clearance four-wheel drive due to rugged terrain.
  • Respect the cultural heritage of the Wudjari people, the traditional owners of Stokes National Park.
