Retreat, relax, REWILD! Camp out in the hinterland of the stunning Sapphire Coast. Situated about 30 km inland from Eden, in the magical Towamba Valley, Rock Lily Springs has a lot to offer—seclusion, sweeping views, tracks through the bush, encounters with the (not-so-wild) wildlife, and golden moments. Maybe it's the last light of the sun colouring the sky, the moon rising big and bold over the fire pit, or the hush of the bush at first light before the birds begin their chorus... You’ll know it when it settles over you. What to expect: Suitable for tents and RVs. There are two main sites offering views that could easily accommodate more than one tent or vehicle. Currently, there are no toilets or showers—you will need to bring a camp toilet, etc. You will also need to take all waste and rubbish with you. We can: • provide rainwater from our tanks and water from our spring, which is suitable for showering and washing up • offer an evening round the fire pit, if the conditions are suitable • make a gas barbecue available, if you let us know • provide a picnic table and chairs for up to four people • a grazing basket for your arrival by prior arrangement.

30km from Merimbula · 2 sites · Tents, RVs
Retreat, relax, REWILD! Camp out in the hinterland of the stunning Sapphire Coast. Situated about 30 km inland from Eden, in the magical Towamba Valley, Rock Lily Springs has a lot to offer—seclusion, sweeping views, tracks through the bush, encounters with the (not-so-wild) wildlife, and golden moments. Maybe it's the last light of the sun colouring the sky, the moon rising big and bold over the fire pit, or the hush of the bush at first light before the birds begin their chorus... You’ll know it when it settles over you. What to expect: Suitable for tents and RVs. There are two main sites offering views that could easily accommodate more than one tent or vehicle. Currently, there are no toilets or showers—you will need to bring a camp toilet, etc. You will also need to take all waste and rubbish with you. We can: • provide rainwater from our tanks and water from our spring, which is suitable for showering and washing up • offer an evening round the fire pit, if the conditions are suitable • make a gas barbecue available, if you let us know • provide a picnic table and chairs for up to four people • a grazing basket for your arrival by prior arrangement.

When to go

The best time to hit the beaches of the Merimbula region is between the warmer months of October and April, though crisp winter days are also ideal for bushwalks and cosying up beside a campfire in the evenings. Visit in March to gorge on local produce at the Merimbula Eat Festival, or in late October or early November to catch the Eden Whale Festival in Eden. 

Know before you go

  • Merimbula is just under a six hours’ drive south of Sydney, and about three hours southeast of Canberra, with bus services available. Merimbula also has a small airport with flights from Sydney.
  • Oysters are available year-round on the NSW south coast. Sydney Rock oysters are usually at their peak during the warmer months, Pacific oysters can be enjoyed throughout the year, and Angasi oysters are best in winter.
  • Checking up-to-date rules before starting a campfire is particularly important on the NSW south coast.
