Secluded beaches at Point Brown, South Australia

Point Brown, Haley Roberts via Instagram @roberts_oz.lap_no.map Off the beaten track and stunning, you’ll find private beaches here, and there are plenty of recommendations for this spectacular location. Come for the seafood, swimming, sunsets and stars. Facilities are none, so be self-contained, and pets allowed! It is not patrolled so please show caution in the surf, same goes for beach four-wheel driving. You’ll find shelter from wind, because there is such an expanse to park in. It is likely you’ll see pods of dolphins, maybe seals! Good luck with your crabbing and fishing – we hope you bring home dinner. Located

No fees at popular Worlds End Gorge Campground, SA

As a favourite South Australian camping ground you can expect a lot of company here during holiday periods. The large gum trees provide lots of shade and the nearby creek is great for your family to have a go at yabbying or just to relax. There is plenty of room for everyone and, although the area is an open paddock, chances are you will be able to set up away from others if you want some privacy. Facilities are limited and you will need to bring your own drinking water.

Beside the seaside at Kingston SE Jetty Parking Area

Kingston SE Jetty Parking Area, SA, is a spacious site located right next to the sea. There is plenty of room for people to go fishing on the long jetty and a BBQ and picnic area where you can fry your catch. If you come up empty handed there is always the pubs and fish & chip shop close by. Unfortunately this camp site only allows self contained vehicles, so if you are camping in a tent you will need to look elsewhere. The fresh sea air and kind locals make the stay very pleasant.
