Jorassic Park (Clothing optional)
3. Jorassic Park (Clothing optional)
72km from Gladstone · 1 site · Tent, RV
Tucked away in a secluded pocket of pristine rain forest, this camping site offers a private and peaceful retreat for self-contained campers. Surrounded by tall, slender trees and lush undergrowth, the area feels completely immersed in nature—quiet, shaded, and far from the crowds.
Bright clusters of red-and-orange wildflowers add vibrant color to the forest floor, and they’re known to attract butterflies, bringing gentle movement and bursts of color to the clearing. Native wildlife thrives here—birds, small reptiles, and even the occasional shed snakeskin near fallen logs remind you of the rich ecosystem around you.
The spacious, natural clearings offer plenty of room to set up camp without seeing other people, making it ideal for those seeking privacy, solitude, and a clothing-optional environment. Whether relaxing in the shade, exploring the surrounding forest, or simply unwinding in silence, this site provides a serene, immersive wilderness experience perfect for travelers who value freedom and tranquillity.
Located just 7km from the beach, it offers excellent fishing and crabbing opportunities.
Guests must be fully self contained with their own toilet/shower facilities and must take all waste with them on departure.
Campfires are welcome in fire pit.
No pets are allowed, sorry.
