Best for self-contained campers. There are no toilets, showers, or potable water at this Hipcamp.
Secluded Racecourse Beach is a short drive south of Crescent Head on the mid-north coast of NSW. We have a beautiful 11 acres of coastal land where you can hear the waves as you sleep with the pristine Racecourse Beach only a 5 to 10 minute walk away. We are not directly on the beach and do not have beach access. Racecourse Beach is a great spot for surfing, fishing and swimming. All you need to do is find one of our intimate sites for you to pitch a tent or pull up with the camper van. THERE ARE NO AMENITIES SO YOU MUST BE FULLY SELF CONTAINED AND LEAVE NO TRACE. Fires are allowed, but must be contained in an off ground fire pit brought by camper. Firewood is available to purchase from the service station in Crescent Head and you are also welcome to gather wood from the property.

    Tent camped at Racecourse Camp (self-contained) with pets, Jan 2026.

    This spot was a convenient place to stay—perfect for day trips and having a solid base to come back to in the evenings. There were no running showers and only portable toilets; however, we had plenty of camping gear, which made the stay more comfortable.

    Camped in a 3 m campervan at Racecourse Camp (self-contained), Jan 2026.

    Excellent camping spot. The camp site gave plenty of option depending on if you wanted shade or out in the sun. Plenty of room to set up and some nice cozy areas .
