  • 4.0/5

    Dozens of flat ground sites available for powered and non powered campers.

    Really chilled out small community vibe, no strict check in or check out times. Clean toilets, hot showers on a 4 minute timer, kitchen available to use with fridge and freezer, hot water urn, kettle, electric stove with 4 hobs, no microwave. Popular surf, fishing and shore diving when conditions are right.

    Location is stunning, you stay steps away form the beach, with amazing sunrises in the morning.

    The showers are warm and the toilets are clean, but the facilities are very basic. Above all wifi would be great, mainly when traveling alone this makes a big difference and there is no phone coverage in Gore bay (at least for Vodafone)

    Very busy during Christmas period but great crowd of well-behaved campers.

    $28 for two people for non-powered sites is a fair price. Facilities are basic but well kept. Hot showers are free but limited to 4 minutes. All three camp grounds are nice camping spots next to the beach.

    A basic camp ground, with stunning views and right next to the beach.

    loved having breakfast, looking at the sea.

    We stayed there for 3 nights and enjoyed it very much.

    It is a tidy place at a spectacular beautiful location. Kerry and his wife make you feel very welcome they are amazing. We can only recommend that place!

    3 small campgrounds all run by same owners.

    We stayed at beach camp with sparse facilities but were welcome to use better kitchen at other camp.
