Just a short turn off from the Great Eastern Drive between Triabunna and Swansea, with easy access to Maria Island and Freycinet National Park, Kanyini Camp is a beautiful and serene piece of land backing on Butlers Ridge Nature reserve with sweeping country views. We are one of only a few farms on a no through road and offer a unique experience of peace and serenity while being close to some of the major attractions the East Coast of Tasmania has to offer. We are located only a 10 minutes drive to one of the most beautiful (secret) beaches in Tasmania and 15 minutes drive to Triabunna where the ferry departs for Maria Island. We live on site (a few acres away across the rivulet) and are delighted to offer 10 opportunities for self-contained campers to camp on our private land and share our passion for the area. This is a leave no trace property that suits self-contained campers who bring everything they need and remove everything they bring. Well behaved dogs and humans are all welcome. We are farmers and this property is where we live and work. Please respect our requirement for self-contained campers only. This includes caravans and campervans with toilets on board. If you have a camper trailer with portable ensuite tent and toilet, please contact us PRIOR to making the booking. Very easy to find & to access, including easy turn around area for 2WD vehicles, camper trailers, campervan and caravans.A tranquil paddock at the feet of a mountain range with sweeping country views and a secret beach less then 10 minutes drive. You can have it all at Kanyini Camp. This campsite for self-contained campers is still the best kept secret of the East Coast and with a bit of luck, you will have it for yourselves. Previous guests describe their stay at Kanyini Camp as a peaceful and serene experience and keep coming back. From there, you can explore the best this part of the world has to offer. Tasmanian's jewel Maria Island, award winner fish and chips van in nearby seaside village Triabunna, many walks and local beaches; all a short drive away. We are a French Australian couple and love meeting new people. We chose to settle in this part of the world after living on the road traveling around Australia in an expedition truck for 3 years and we are so happy to be able to give back, share our local knowledge and answer any question you may have.  BYO firewood and enjoy a campfire under the stars while spotting some wallabies and maybe even the famous Tasmanian devil. In summer, please check the website before arrival and respect the fire ban if in effect. We have no facility to offer other than nature, peace of mind that you won't be disturbed and our hospitality. We Only Accept Self-Contained vehicles with toilets, NO tents or swags sorry. We are farmers and this property is where we live and work. Please respect our requirement for self-contained campers only. This includes caravans and campervans with toilets on board.

Had two great nights with my dog at Kanyini camp, all to ourselves on one night. Lovely and quiet, easy to find. Super flat and well maintained paddock. Florence also gave some great local insights of places to visit. Lots of dog friendly options in and around this area.

Our second peaceful stay at Kanyini. Plenty of wildlife, and lovely walks with our dogs. The weather went from hot and humid to wet and humid, but still lots to do - walks on the beach, fishing at the river mouth and lovely wines at Boomer Creek vineyard. Definitely a spot we will visit again

Peaceful and quiet with lots of open space to watch wallabies. Also, the host was very helpful with quick responses to messages and had lots of information about what to do in the area.

Very easy to find location, directions from Florence were clear and easy to understand. Nice views of the surrounding countryside with some friendly wallabies close by.

Off the beaten track, it was very peacful and down to earth. Lots of wildlife to see in the twilight. Our favourite campsite on the east coast.
