Information

An official campsite is located on the cliff top just above the eastern end of the beach. It is a key overnight stop on the South Coast Track, typically used on Day 5 or 6 of the trek. The sites are well-protected within coastal scrub and forest, which helps shield tents from the frequent high winds of the Southern Ocean.No wooden platforms. One long drop toilet. Fresh water is collected from the creek that feeds the waterfall. It is strongly recommended to treat or boil this water before drinking.This site is just a few metres from the top of the steep rock scramble that leads up from the Granite Beach waterfall
