Pebbly Beach
I think this place has enough exposure that it really speaks for itself
Laura was great and very very accommodating to my family on arrival and even let us get a look at the other site as it was available to look and have a swim at
10/10 stay and will definitely be back next time we are north

Pebbly Beach
The most stunning Hipcamp! The water is unbelievably blue and crystal clear, and the hosts are so lovely. Such a beautiful little slice of paradise!
My wife and I stayed while passing through Coffs Harbour and would highly recommend. The site is definitely as good as the images! Stunning spring fed dam with crystal clear water. Will definitely be coming back
Just go.
You’ll see why I’m speechless and unable to write anything to do this place justice.
There’s really no suitable words that can describe the peace, serenity and magic of The Blue Lagoon.

Pebbly Beach
The most beautiful place I’ve ever camped thanks so much guys
The most perfect spot!!
Welcoming and friendly hosts, stunning water hole, fully private and you can pay to access the outdoor bath (which is a must!)
We also bought some of their lamb packs and they were delicious
Could not recommend this place enough
Very special camp I would recommend to anyone. Wonderful host Laura and magical lagoon and the bath is a must xx
We absolutely loved our stay at Pebbly Beach. Laura, the campsite owner, was incredible from start to finish. Her clear instructions made everything easy, and she met us on arrival, and was always happy to answer any questions throughout our stay.
The location is truly incredible!!! you have to see it to believe it. Having the Blue Lake essentially to ourselves was the highlight, and it made for such a special and peaceful experience. We stayed for my girlfriend’s birthday weekend and couldn’t have asked for a better location. The stone bath is so magical as well.
Highly recommend staying here if you’re looking for a beautiful, private and peaceful camping experience.
We absolutely loved our weekend at the Blue Lagoon! Such a gorgeous, private campsite and definitely my favourite we’ve stayed at by far!! The lagoon is even more beautiful in person, with the clearest blue water, and it was so peaceful having such an incredible spot to ourselves. Laura and Dougie were lovely hosts and the lamb cutlets from their farm were divine. We were genuinely so sad to leave and a cannot wait to come back!
Oh and don’t even get me started on the stone bath…heaven!!!

The Blue Lagoon
We had two day this is one of the best places we have stayed so beautiful
Reviews don’t lie, this place is pretty amazing. Easy access, flat camping, clear water, shade, beautiful surrounds and a bath with running hot water. Can’t beat it. Get the bbq pack if you can, best sausos I’ve had!
This was the best camping spot we have ever stayed and it has all the things that i wanted to experience and relax… And the coolest part is that the host Luara is too kind and welcoming that you would feel like visiting again for their hospitality.
This is my top 1 camping spot till now.

The Blue Lagoon
Amazing stay and beautiful views, the lake was a lovley swim, the host is amazing too thank you for a lovley stay
The reviews DO NOT LIE! we stayed at Pebbly Beach and had the most amazing time. The water is crystal clear, its spacious and private and the hot bath was a godsend. Laura was kind and accommodating, and I'm already trying to book in again!
We had such an incredible stay at this Hipcamp! The property is absolutely stunning, with a beautiful blue lagoon and crystal-clear river that made it feel like our own little paradise. The campsite was peaceful, spacious, and surrounded by nature, making it the perfect place to relax and unwind.
One of the highlights was definitely the gorgeous stone bath—it was such a unique touch and the perfect way to soak while taking in the peaceful surroundings. Everything was well maintained, and you can tell the hosts have put so much care into creating a special experience.
If you’re looking for a quiet escape to reconnect with nature, we couldn’t recommend this place more highly. We can’t wait to come back!

The Blue Lagoon
Amazing place with crystal clear water away from busy roads. Will 100% becoming back for another stay.
The Blue Lagoon is one of the most spectacular private campsites we've ever visited. The crystal-clear spring-fed water is even more beautiful in person, and having the entire site to ourselves made it feel like our own private paradise. The peaceful setting, surrounded by nature, made it easy to completely switch off and relax. Laura hosted such a great experience, we'll be back.
As the head of Australias biggest video database of campgrounds at TerrainOne - I have filmed hundreds of camps across our great country. As it stands now there is no camp more beautiful than the Blue Lagoon. Legendary hosts and the greatest place to experience with friends.
Worth every dollar 🔥
We had one of the best camp trips to date here, such tranquil beautiful place. Laura and Doug’s hospitality and kindness is unmatched !

The Blue Lagoon
Stunning place to camp even in the rain.
Bridal veil falls cascade into a Magical christal teal coloured clear water pool. Though the water was cool in May for a swim, the outdoor hot mineral bath afterwards refreshes the both body and soul.
Laura is a wonderful host and the lamb cutlets from the lamb pack cooked over the fire were sensational.
After staying 3 nights it is easy to see why Blue Lagoon is rated so highly … so peaceful, completely private ( except for the platypus and turtles ) and such a beautiful place.
Definitely the best Hipcamp we have stayed in …. and we have stayed in lots and worth the 10 hour drive to get here.
Thank you Laura … looking forward to our next stay ( already booked ).
Great magical spot for camping and refreshing, our full experience will be on YouTube soon ( 1nkedExplorer )
Thank you to Laura for your warm welcome, kindness and hospitality in sharing your piece of paradise on sacred Gumbaynggirr land. You can truly feel the connection to nature and earth here.
The Blue Lagoon was everything — and more — than I imagined. Every review here speaks the same language, and now I understand why. This is an experience not to be forgotten.
The healing blue pools, the crystal-clear water, turtles, incredible birdlife, and the peaceful sounds of nature with the gentle background of running rapids created something really special. Waking to mist rising over the water felt magical.
The camping spaces are clear, open, beautifully maintained and surrounded by nature. The stone bath is an absolute must — especially on a soft rainy evening with the shower overhead. We loved every moment of it.
At night, the campfire was perfect beneath phenomenal skies filled with bright stars and a clear view of the Milky Way.
As mentioned in the listing, you do need to be fully self-contained, but the bath setup is such a thoughtful addition.
A truly peaceful, grounding and unforgettable stay. We will absolutely be back.
AMAZING SPOT!!
Wonderful family very thoughtful and pretty much help with anything you need. It was so relaxing and we will definitely be back can’t wait
I don’t know how to describe this place — the photos say it all.

The Blue Lagoon
Most beautiful campsite and very helpful and friendly hosts. The site is massive, private and grassy. The waterhole is so stunning. There’s also a running river on the other side, and with the chirping of the birds, it’s just the most beautiful and relaxing setting. And the hot stone bath push it to top level of camping experience that one can ask for.

The Blue Lagoon
We would recommend The Blue Lagoon to everyone! Laura and her beautiful family were extremely kind and very accommodating for all our family. We will be back 😊
We have been wanting to come to blue lagoon since we purchased our caravan back in July! This place is incredible. We scored a cancellation booking and stayed for 4 nights. Lauren, Doug and the kids are an incredibly family! Can not wait to stay there again! The bath was such a beautiful touch, very relaxing 🍃🐟
What an absolutely magical place! Stunning and special in so many ways. The site is pure bliss & relaxation at its finest. Laura & Doug were so lovely and amazing hosts. We cannot wait to return!! Thank you guys!! 🩵
By far the most beautiful place we have ever camped! The water was pristine, and the wildlife abundant. Laura was very welcoming and we were lucky enough to get upgraded to the Blue Lagoon due to a cancellation. I still can’t believe we had it to ourselves. What an incredible experience!
I’m speechless 😶
5 days wasn’t enough …. Take me back!!!
I’ve found our favourite camp spot !!!
Breathtakingly beautiful 😍
Have already rebooked and can’t wait ……..
Hosts went above and beyond!! Would recommend one thousand percent 🫡
