Information

Many free camps along the coast. Very rocky coastal area with mostly flat but rocky ground. Can be very windy and so better suited to setups without canvas or roof top tents. Best suited to small offroad caravans or motorhomes. No facilities so you must leave no trace or these sites will be closed by council. Take your rubbish , byo toilet, reuse existing firepits and clean them out. Leave the place better than when you arrived. Fishing for squid, dolphin watching and swimming is all safe here.For a more secluded self sufficient bush camping experience, Fitzgerald Bay offers several designated camping areas approximately 16 km from Whyalla via the Point Lowly–Port Bonython Road.At the T-junction where the sealed road becomes dirt:Area 1 - Approximately 1.8 km to the left. A basic bush camping area with no facilities.Area 2 - Continue another 1.9 km. This is the main serviced camping area with toilets and running water.Area 3 - Turn right at the T-junction and travel approximately 3.7 km to reach a number of smaller, peaceful bush camping sites with no facilities.
