6.8km from Port Lincoln · 2 sites · Tents, RVs
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.

My partner and I have stayed at Parrara View previously, a few years back, and this is a place we will always choose to stay when coming to Port Lincoln. The hosts, Kerri and Ant, are genuinely lovely people and have created a beautiful, welcoming property. Since our first visit, the grounds now include shower and toilet facilities, which—while we didn’t personally need them—are a fantastic addition and show the care and thought they put into improving the stay for guests. The setting is peaceful, well maintained, and perfect for a relaxing getaway. We can’t recommend Parrara View highly enough and look forward to staying again.

We’ve stayed at many Hipcamps on our lap of Australia and really enjoyed this one. It has great views, is quiet and the hosts have provided good amenities even though it is an off-grid site. Highly recommended as a base for Port Lincoln and Coffin Bay.

This is a wonderful spot. The site is peaceful and quiet. The birdlife is incredible. And it is 10 minutes to Port Lincoln by car. We stayed for 5 nights and could easily have stayed longer.

This is a wonderful spot just outside Port Lincoln on a billabong with incredible bird life. Sheltered away from the offshore winds and so peaceful. We spent Christmas here in our caravan with two friends in their T Van and our sons in a tent. We had the whole place to ourselves. It was wonderful. Highly recommend.

Great spot here not far at all from Port Lincoln. You can see the ocean from camp which is really nice. Well maintained camp sites with good amenities. Kerri-Ann has been very friendly and accommodating! Definitely recommend this spot!

We had a lovely stay at camp sugar gum. We had toilets and showers which was fabulous after our long travels. Beautiful views of rolling hills, vines and even the ocean. Being only 12 minutes from Port Lincoln also was a plus.

We loved our 2 night stay in an open paddock with views of the ocean in the distance and the vineyards to our right. It was so peaceful we were lucky to have the place to ourselves. Close to Port Lincoln. Directions were clear and easy to find the place. Great communication from host. Highly recommend.

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.

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 .

The Dam View campsite was peaceful with beautiful views, especially at sunset. Luke was a lovely host and even shared some cool history about the property and he also gifted us some fresh eggs from his chickens! Plenty of room & a perfect spot to unwind and enjoy nature.

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.
