About this campsite

Not a lot of room in the formal parking area for caravans but some space exists on the verges of Ocean Road. On weekends, parking would not be caravan friendly. Only two parallel parking bays. There is another car park in the road adjacent to the Bowls Club and still only 200m from the beach As a usually landlocked coastal creek, Cathie Creek is a safe swimming and fishing destination with the surf option nearby. On the Northern end of the reserve, a path leads to the surf and Lake Cathie Lookout. Don't forget your camera.

Grants Beach Northern Parking Area

6.9km away

The Grants Beach Northern Parking Area boasts breath-taking views due to its elevated location. Convenient access to a scenic walking track leading to a beautiful beach, where your pet dogs can roam freely off-leash is available for visitors. If you love outdoor activities, engage in surf and rock fishing on the picturesque beach. However, due to a lack of a turnaround area, this location is not ideal for caravan parking. Swimming is not advised in this area, the designated area for that is at the Southern end of Grants Beach at North Haven.
