Enjoy a full water view of Boston Bay and the surrounds of Port Lincoln. At night, witness the magical display of the entire bay with moonlight reflections, fish farms, large ships, the Port Lincoln wharf, silos, and the surrounding area. During the day, marvel at the boating activities ranging from ships to old-style yachts and smaller fishing vessels. Situated off a main road, with only local residents using the road (positioned at the back of a large 2.5-acre block), the block is fully fenced with a gateway entrance. Power outlets are available, 2 x 15 amp power points located on the outside of the shed and a double 10 amp at front of shed. There is ample rainwater available, with multiple tap outlets, hose and pressure pump located at the shed for filling tanks or washing. While we don’t have toilet facilities on our block at this point, the closest public toilets are in the beach town of North Shields and in Port Lincoln. We welcome animal companions but ask that you are mindful if there are other campers. Although not far from Port Lincoln and North Shields, our location offers space, tranquility, and quality views. The shed is locked, and we have a shower facility at the back, which is currently locked until we install a septic tank. You can camp anywhere on the block, drive around to find a spot, or choose from a few little granite rock spots and a single olive tree. The front gate is unlocked with a pin that can be easily pulled out, and it is a double-opening gate. To access the rainwater pump and tap outlets, simply turn on the power point located on the backside of the shed. The power point for the pump is a double 10-amp outlet. It’s a beautiful spot and perfect for leisurely walks if you enjoy exploring on foot. There’s a great waking/ push bike trail that goes from North Sheilds to the port Lincoln Mariner at the bottom of the hill where our block is situated. There’s a winery about 4 km from our block which is opened most days.

Set in a peaceful valley surrounded by native bushland, this 10-acre property offers the perfect balance of serenity and adventure. Just a short 10-minute drive from Port Lincoln, it feels a world away—offering hipcampers the ideal mix of seclusion and convenience. The landscape features open clearings, gentle rises, and shaded pockets beneath scattered eucalypts—perfect for pitching a tent or parking your van. Birdlife is abundant, and on still mornings, the only sound is the breeze rustling through the trees. Whether you're stargazing by the fire or watching the light shift across the valley at dusk, this is a place to slow down and truly reconnect with nature. Steeped in local history, the property was the first to be established in the area and was once used for commercial beekeeping. The original house on the site has its own unique story—it was formerly the Post Office building from Maralinga, relocated here in the 1970s.

Weekend Trip to Bay views 885

We loved having the place to ourselves, picked a spot at the top of the hill as Jenny suggested. The views alone were worth the fees. Would recommend to others that are completely self sufficient and want a place for a base to explore the area.

Lovely rural setting amongst established trees with a great view. Peaceful and quite, we had the place to ourselves. The best portaloo and shower set up I have seen and a thoughtful addition for campers who aren't self sufficient or don't want to poo in the van loo. Friendly and helpful hosts, we are lucky Hipcampers to have hosts like these!

Absolutely worthwhile making the effort to get to Parrara View. We stayed on the Sugar Gums site. What a fabulous location in a grassy field of aged Sugar Gum trees. Excellent, clean (incredibly clean) amenities, cool little fire pits, flat campsite. Was our favourite ever Hipcamp so thoroughly recommended. Our host was excellent and really informative about their area and happy to have a chat. Short drives to both Port Lincoln and Coffin Bay. Loved our stay at Parrara View.

We loved our stay at Tiatukia campsite by the sea, the views were sensational. We had amazing sunrises over the ocean. It was a short drive into Port Lincoln. Debbie gave us clear instructions and no question was a problem. It was nice to have a good chat to Ashley and get to know a bit about the farm. Highly recommend this property.

One of the best campground and places we stayed on in our 6 months around Australia Trip. The koala are so near and absolutely gorgeous. The communication with the owner are easy and clear. A lot of space and even big caravan will fit. The road is a little bit rough for the last 1km but shouldn't be a problem. Fly's can be annoying but all the rest is just amazing. Highly recommend this place .

We wanted a spot close to Coffin Bay that offered a quiet respite in the evening. This was perfect. Settle in for a Sundowner next to a blazing fire ( depending on Fire Ban season). Sarah happily provides fire wood for the two evenings we spent there. Quiet and secluded. No issues at all with access, but approach the driveway from the west i.e. from the Streaky Bay side.

Mikkira Koala Sanctuary was an amazing experience, camping in close proximity to Koalas. Listening to them communicate to each other during the night. So special . The property itself is lovely , quite expansive . We wandered around looking for koalas , we must have seen at least 20 individuals during our stay , also enjoying the wild flowers , Large grass trees . Loads of kangaroos and some emu. If you have overseas visitors it’s a must visit . Thanks Helen for hosting us . A 5 star experience.

If you’re looking for a caravan park experience, this isn’t the place to find it. Yes the roads a bit rough, and the toilets are basic - at least they flush! But if you’re after the most wonderful wildlife experience - this is where you’ll find it. Koalas everywhere you look. Wild free koalas doing koala stuff. Not to mention the roos, emus, birds and lizards. Huge camping areas, with fire pots scattered (bring your own firewood). This place is absolutely magical.

This place was amazing kangaroos and emus everywhere. But when it comes to koala's. You had to look for lump in the tree. Then there was another in next tree and the next tree they were everywhere. Up high down low and waddling across the ground. Well worth the 16 km of dirt road to get there. Recommend this place 100%... will return again to walk and explore the history on this wonderful sanctuary.

A picture perfect campsite so secluded and so incredibly beautiful. We didn’t see a koala however loved watching the kangaroos at play and the spectacular colours of the many varieties of birds. My favi part was being immersed in the stars. It was like standing in a fish bowl with stars covering you from your feet until as high as you can see. Spectacular experience. Thank you

We enjoyed our overnight stay at Tiatukia. The views are spectacular. There was lots of open space and strategically placed stacks of hay bales providing both protection from the wind and privacy from the other sites. We had a toasty little campfire in the evening. The hosts are delightful and provided clear directions to the campsite and were very responsive with all communications.
