Nice place to camp, water was abit muddy in the river due to recent rain we assume but we still swam, heaps of snags in the mangroves when fishing but still worth camping here! Just dont forget the bug spray as the midgies can be intense at times (obviously next to a river) ample amount of space just dont be that guy that parks right next to people already set up.

Bush camping and river activities
We loved camping in our shady spot, enjoyed allowing the dog off the lead, caught a couple of mudcrabs and a bream in the river,which made for a yummy seafood lunch. Access to the river is really only available off the pontoon as the banks are steep,which made it difficult for access when campers chose to camp in front of the pontoon and also the gravel boat ramp, but this did not affect us too much. Host Trev was awesome nice casual vibe,.very welcoming and encouraging, he even did a lap around the campsites with firewood for everyone. Would recommend the site and would definitely go again Thanks, christine Steven, Zoe and Cass 😁
