376 hectare operating dairy farm next to Biamanga National Park with access via secret 4WD track to the mountain and 22km to Brogo Dam for bass fishing. Brogo Dam is excellent location for a swim and to take your dogs for a walk or swim. 16.5 kms to shopping centre of Bega. & 34 km to Tathra beach.
The property has eucalyptus forest, rainforest gullies, fresh mountain water and abundant wildlife include bellbirds and lyrebirds.
The campsite is at the original 1908 selection block by the late John Pearce (one of the first settlers in the area) and has extensive views.
in dry weather you can get here in 2WD towing a small camper trailer. 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.

Roagumba, or Roa for short, is our 920 acre patch of paradise in the stunning Yowrie Valley on the NSW Far South Coast. Roa is a family owned working cattle farm, made up of approximately 60% cleared land and the rest native bushland.
The Yowrie Valley is surrounded by the beautiful Wadbilliga National Park, giving it a sense of remote seculsion whilst being only a 15 minute drive from the township of Cobargo. The valley is a 35 minute drive to the stunning beaches near Bermagui, whilst the historic and quirky town of Tilba is 40 minutes away.
The crystal clear Yowrie River flows along the western side of the property with numerous secluded swimming holes.
The property is a working cattle farm so you're likely to meet some very friendly cows during your stay, as well as a lot of native wildlife such as kangaroos, wombats and birds.
We operate three Hipcamp sites and two different locations on the property. Mountain Camp is a single site and offers complete seclusion and privacy, while River Camp is a double site and offers views across the valley whilst only being metres from the river. Both locations have composting toilets and Mountain Camp has an additional undercover camp kitchen.
We cater for small groups and families who are seeking a quiet, peaceful escape. Our sites are small and are capped at 6 people each, per night. To reduce vehicle traffic, protect our farms biosecurity and out of respect to our neighbours, there is a maximum of 2 vehicles allowed per site.

Our stay at Riverview was delightful. Firstly, the hosts were incredible providing a tour of the farm & river as well as providing fresh produce. It was a warm welcoming, we were very grateful. The camping was flat and spaceious. We were happy with the number of other campers on the site, not too close at all. It did the job and that's all that matters.

We arrived quite late. Shelley was waiting for us on arrival, showed us around and shared some insights where to go for swimming. That was very kind of her. Area is very nice. Drop toilet was very clean and nicely decorated. Kids were happy to communicate with chicks and other animals hanging around.

Really loved the relaxed spot! Was clean, great scenery and only 5 bookings allowed at a time which really made the place stand out as everyone had there privacy. Jackie was lovely and came over for a chat and offered to show us a secret swimming spot but after a long day travelling and early morning rise we declined, will have to come back again to see it!

We had a lovely stay at Julie + David's Wolumla property. The setting was spacious and the views were incredible! We couldn't believe we had the whole site to ourselves.
Great facilities, including a drop toilet, camp fire set up, picnic table and access to water. Julie was great on communication and David was very welcoming and gave us a tour around the whole property.
An abundance of wildlife and a pristine location!
We'll definitely be back again.

The big grassy area was perfect for our family. The lush grass and shade from the willow tree was so picturesque. We used to have a composting toilet so that was quite nostalgic for us. The farm animals were a delight to have around. It was tranquil and a true slice of heaven for us. Would highly recommend if you like the slow quiet life and are eco minded. Shelley was an exceptional host and we would be happy to return ✨

Camping at The Dairy (site 1) at Sapphire Coast Dairy was a glorious experience for our party of five adults. Beautiful views in all directions. Norm and Narelle welcomed us warmly and provided information about the property and the area. We had fun driving the 4WD track up to the road that takes you to the falls and two of our group explored the walking track up the hill. The facilities in the shed were appreciated including hot showers and the outdoor bathtub with the most amazing vista. We enjoyed every moment and will be back to explore more of this beautiful region.

My partner, myself and our 3 small dogs camped here and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. We set up camp on top of a hill and had extensive views of the property! We enjoyed watching the cows graze and listening to the bird song. We woke up early to watch the sun rise while we soaked in the outdoor bath. There is also the option of a hot outdoor shower!! The directions norm gave were clear and there was plenty of signage directing us to the camps. Norm saw us driving through the cows and called us on arrival, he came to say hello ant our site and gave us a run down of the facilities. There is a flushing toilet, a basic kitchen with kettle, microwave and fridge, an indoor rustic shower and outdoor dining with tv, games and a speaker. There’s also a fire pit here which we didn’t use due to the warmer weather. During the day we visited Tathra beach and Brogo Dam, both dog friendly locations and only 30 min drive from camp. We will definitely be back, thanks Norm!

The best star host camping near Tathra guide
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.
