Conveniently located between Launceston and Devonport, Buckbill Banks Camping offers a beautiful, level camping area overlooking Quamby Brook Creek. The 35-acre property offers views of Quamby Bluff, and various options to explore and relax. Find yourself a nice quiet spot, where you can enjoy peace and quiet. Although we take several bookings at once, you are guaranteed a secluded nook, there is plenty of space. There is a wood fired hot tub beside the creek, which all campers have access to. Imagine star gazing from the hot tub of an evening, or enjoying a morning soak whilst keeping your eyes peeled for the resident platypus in their natural habitat! Firewood is provided for the hot tub, you may buy wood on site for your individual campfires. The hot Tub is not for wild parties, but to relax and view the native wild life, quietly watch the platypus in their natural environment. Please note, we accept one camper trailer/caravan per booking. If you are traveling in a group with multiple caravans, you will need to book multiple sites - but will still be able to camp close together although we dont allow big noisy, disruptive groups anymore! The property has good access for all types of vehicles.

Duckbill Banks is a beautiful peaceful camp spot next to a creek. If you are lucky, and quiet, you might get to see the platypus. This is not a place for large loud gatherings. The hot tub is an added bonus, perfect for relaxing in.

We had a lovely time at Duckbills Banks Camping ground. It’s such a beautiful, peaceful spot. The Hot Tub was so enjoyable and relaxing. We will definitely be returning to camp there another time.

We recently stayed for one night at DuckBill Camp Site and loved every minute. The highlights included spotting a platypus, relaxing in the hot tub, and being surrounded by stunning nature. The hosts were incredibly accommodating. Highly recommend this place to others!
