4 nights at Glennbrooke River Camp

The sites are large, private, clean and well maintained. You are right on the river which actually has fish (we caught 10, some bring and flatheads) one site has a shelter, table, chairs, a few hot plates, bbq bits and pieces and a fresh water tank. Brooke and little Cash come down for a catch up, we were having problems with our camper and Glenn came down to see if he could give us a hand. We would suggest you take a day trip to Tilba, nice drive to a quirky country town. Narooma is not too far away and beautiful part of the world. Always good to have a chat to Brooke about her farm and homesteading, she’s a genuine good egg. I’m sure we’ll be back. Thanks guys for another beautiful off grid getaway 💚

1 night at Glennbrooke River Camp

Absolutely fantastic spot to camp, site is very well maintained and location is very peaceful

We were travelling with friends - site #3 was perfect for 2 small campervans . Kim was very accommodating letting us have the 2 vehicles there. Very relaxed stay, so close to the beach across the road and just a few minutes from Bermagui - thank you !

6 nights at Sunset Point

What a beautiful place, and such a beautiful host as well. Our trip did not go to plan with car trouble but thankfully Sally was so very helpful and accommodating. We can not wait to go back and really explore this beautiful area. Thank you Sally and Coco for having us.

2 nights at Merimbula Camping

Beautiful spot! Little creek right beside us and a private, flat and shaded spot. Was our idea of heaven.

3 nights at Millingandi Station

Nice little spot right next to the highway but still quiet. We explored most of the Sapphire Coast from here. The long drop toilet is nice and clean and quite quaint. Jodie is really good with her communication and replies to messages within minutes. I particularly liked the vege garden 😀

4 nights at Glennbrooke River Camp

This spot at Glennbrooke was superb! We were there by ourselves, by the river, watching the tide come and go, listening to the birds. A complete downtime . Tranquil . Glenn and Brooke were great hosts. Got that balance of leaving us be and making sure our stay was as good as it can be. Would definitely stay again and highly recommend

2 nights at Scout's Run Private Creekside Camp

Loved the access to the creek - take a dip, it’s really nice. Shona came out and welcomed us, which was very nice. Easy access to camp sites. Sites were all flat and easy to peg into. Close to Merimbula if you want beaches and oysters. Drop toilet was good as well, nice and clean. We enjoyed our time here!

1 night at Millingandi Station

Weekend Trip to Millingandi Station

We enjoyed our stay at Millingandi Station, Jodie was so helpful & friendly. Brett showed us how to shuck farm fresh oysters. The best I have ever eaten. They have a very friendly Jack Russell who came to visit & have cuddles every day while we stayed in the paddock. We will be back again, hopefully the sun is shining next time.

1 night at Millingandi Station

Easily accessible & lovely views from the riverfront sites. Plenty of space to roam and the river access was fantastic. Although we had rain during our stay & it was quite wet- there was a common space camp lounge with darts, table tennis and seating etc. would recommend.

We are interested in the idea of becoming organic farmers, love to do our bit for the environment, and want to live a more sustainable lifestyle. We grow herbs and vegetables, have a few fruit trees, and can't wait to plant more. We have fallen in love with farming life and want our farm to be a place of learning and enjoyment and can't wait to share the little place we call home. So Good Farm is situated 20 minutes west of Pambula Beach on the Sapphire Coast. The property is surrounded by trees and is filled with an abundance of wildlife.

Nerrigundah Tuross River Camping

1 site · Tent200 acres · Nerrigundah, NSW

Based near Mount Utopia, Nerrigundah, we fell in love with our little sanctuary in 2020. There are two families Dwayne, Michelle, Robbie and Sharon and their four boys Blake, Taeg, Cooper and Flynn. Campers at heart, we started spending nearly every second weekend in our campers and this lead to many a night discussing what else we could do to make this property a place for others to use. It is a work in progress and there is plenty more to come, currently there is a ablution block that is up near the old house site, we decided it was best to have the camp area closer to the river. We have since added a camp kitchen, large undercover area and two cabins (for our own use at this stage). Enjoy direct access to the river plus more swimming areas on the property. Campfires are permitted. There is some firewood on the property but probably best to bring some of your own. There is Telstra service enabling mobile coverage if needed especially for emergencies. 4WDs are recommended to access this campsite. During the rain we recommend 4WD only. In dry you can access with an all wheel drive. Please message us if you're unsure about weather conditions and your vehicle. Our little piece of Utopia is still a work in progress but is picturesque as well as peaceful. Your furry family member is welcome to join you. We hope you enjoy our little Utopia.

There is a steep hairpin bend so I do not recommend caravans with 2WD vehicles (4WD vehicle and caravan could handle this). If you have queries regarding access check photos in gallery or please ask me. Flushing toilet on site. Dogs permitted. Good telephone and internet reception. Ideal for flying your new drone.

Camping near Tathra with campfires guide

Overview

Set on the shores of Boulder Bay in the south coast, Tathra promises campers prime coastal views, sandy beaches, and excellent fishing. This seaside town may be on the smaller side, but the abundance of natural activities and national parks make it a haven for camping. Tathra beachside accommodations vary from rustic campsites for motorhomes to glamping in cosy cabins and safari tents. After a good night’s sleep, zip across the bridge to Mimosa Rocks National Park to scuba dive to shipwrecks and birdwatch along the shoreline before jetting off to Bournda National Park. Spend the day here trekking along the coastline while watching for more local bird species. Beowa National Park highlights even more wildlife, with incredible whale watching from a historical lighthouse.

Where to go

Mimosa Rocks National Park

Just across Bega River sits Mimosa Rocks National Park, only a 10-minute drive from Tathra. Find holiday parks for tents, camper trailers, and caravans in the area with on-site amenities like picnic tables, BBQ facilities, and toilets. Avid divers can wake up and scuba dive to the Paddle Steamer Mimosa, a shipwreck that lays just off the coast, while beginners can swim, snorkel, and fish in Moon Bay or Nelson Lagoon. Take in the picturesque views from a variety of different headlands, and watch for waterfowl along the shoreline year-round.

Bournda National Park

Found 15 minutes south of Tathra, Bournda National Park abounds with outdoor activities. Kayak the Bournda Lagoon or the waters of Wallagoot Lake before sauntering down Sandy Creek loop track, then keep an eye on the trees for native bird species while walking. Bournda campgrounds welcome swags, tents, camper trailers, and campervans with a range of facilities and amenity blocks with flush toilets, showers, and BBQ areas.

Beowa National Park

The stunning rocky coastline of Beowa National Park sits an hour and a half from Tathra. Take on Boyds Tower walking track, a favourite for beginners, or conquer the multi-day Light to Light walk for experts. History buffs can check out Green Cape Lighthouse, where wildlife watchers can also scan the seas for migrating whales. Campgrounds in the park offer basic amenities, but there are more luxurious accommodations available too. Take a break from the tent and get pampered in a bunkhouse or heated cottage vacation rental with bathrooms, fully equipped kitchens, and fresh linens.

When to go

Every season in Tathra offers something special, which makes it a first-rate choice for year-round camping trips. Feathered friends flock to Mimosa Rocks National Park throughout the year, and if whale watching is top priority, plan to visit in spring between September and November. The hot and humid summers that last from December until March are an ideal time for beach lounging and exploring the waterways in Bournda National Park. Campgrounds will be at peak capacity in summer, so plan ahead and reserve a pitch when possible.
