Location: on the eastern side of island, between Middle Road and Cape Moreton.
Access: the campground can be reached by 4WD and on foot by experienced bushwalkers only. Parking is available next to camp sites. It is accessible for camper trailers. If towing a trailer it is recommended to use Bulwer–Blue Lagoon Road instead of Middle Road as this track is one-way and narrow. The soft sand of Middle Road makes it easy for heavy vehicles to get bogged, which can block the track for several hours.
Number of sites: a maximum of 25 sites are available, all marked with totems. Seasonal closures mean that not all sites will be full all year round.
Camp sites are suitable for: tent camping and camper trailers.
Camp site surface: sand.
Facilities: water (treat before drinking), septic toilets and cold showers.
Open fires: allowed (in existing fire sites only), except when fire bans or prohibitions apply. Fuel or gas stoves, rather than open fires, are recommended.
Generator use: not permitted.
Essentials to bring: drinking water and containers, water sterilisation tablets, rubbish bags, sunscreen, insect repellent, firewood (untreated mill off-cuts), axe, sealable containers for rubbish, first-aid kit and sand pegs. Read more about before you visit.
Bookings: book online. Bookings can be made no more than six months in advance.
