Beautiful and private just perfect! We enjoyed our time mostly good weather but a storm out to sea made it really gusty and windy through the night.

Fantastic spot, very private.
Will defiantly be coming back!
Only negative was the bush track to the beach was a bit overgrown, apart from that it’s the perfect beach camping spot

Highly recommend this camp. It's very private and feels isolated yet only 20mins to Ballina or Evans Head. Kids loved spotting the birds and Wallabies and the short walk to the beach was like a mini adventure each time.
Will definitely be back.

We loved this camp, its secluded, quiet, with beach access via a bush path and sandy access road.
Perfect to get away for the weekend.

Beautiful spot with a huge area to camp, lots of soft, flat ground. Beach is a short walk down a well marked track. I would definitely recommend if you like to be alone in nature, rather than surrounded by other campers. The beach is beautiful too and feels like you have it all to yourself.

This spot was great. The camping space is surrounded by greenery and there is lots of wildlife around! At night you can hear the waves as you’re going to sleep, and the beach is only a 3minute walk away. Couldn’t recommend this place enough. Great experience and would love to go back!

We loved camping at Patch's Beach! We saw so much wildlife and were even lucky enough to see bioluminescence as we stayed on a moonless night in mid September! Couldn't recommend more :)

Absolute Beachfront for Campers
As per other reviews, this is one of the most beautiful places you can ever have the privilege to stay at. It is simply stunning. Exquisitely private with the sound of birds, surf and nothing more than the very rare sugar cane tractor - pure serenity and relaxation. Huge open space with lots of options to set up camp pending wind and weather. Sadly someone camping there prior to us had ignored the owners requests and had lit a fire and left broken glass, stubbie lids and small amounts of rubbish. It is so disappointing to believe that some humans can be so ignorant and vile to treat such a beautiful natural environment like they did. This is a place that needs to be treasured.

Beautiful ocean view and beach access camp ground. The sound of the waves are so relaxing to fall asleep to. It was disappointing to see that people before us had not followed the rules and had a fire, there was also some glass in the fire and bottle top lids, We did our best to pick up what we could. If other people are willing to open up their land to you, then we should all be respecting the rules.

We loved the Absolute beachfront campsite and will be back. We saw whales from the campsite. The birdlife was great. The instructions to get there and enter the property were spot on. Thank you Michael for having us, we will be back.

Loved the remoteness and privacy of this camp. Would certainly visit again, would be a 10/10 if camp fires are allowed
A great bush hike to get to the beach :)

Great private and clean spot. Short walk to beach with a fair drop onto the beach due erosion but made all the more fun. Good swimming but need to be careful as it is remote. Was well worth it.

Great private campsite, the site itself is perfect for camping with lots of flat ground to set up and a stunning view of the waves crashing. The only downside is the campsite fire ban. Not sure if this is a temporary thing but when checking the local government website there was no fire ban in place during the time I stayed there, Check in was easy with well written instructions.
Will definitely be booking again in the future
