We stayed at the camp ground at Ball Bay recently and loved it. It is a quiet grassy spot, though there is no hot water showers or electricity for camping there is hot water for washing up at the BBQ as there is electricity for cooking. It is within a short stroll to the pretty beach. Ignore the no caravan signs on the road in as they must have meant for a time past and never removed. It is a dirt road but well graded. Read my blog entry for more details. robbiebago.blogspot.com/2012/09/ball-bay-campground.html
