There is a designated camp area - I'm not too sure if you can camp along the beach area.

Thanks Batesy, I will call the council. On the 4wd monthly DVD they camped the night right on the beach. It looked spectacular and it was 5 min drive from the coloured sands. Way back when we used to drive up the cape every year, a lot of these little places were not available, so even though some are getting closed up, some new ones have become available. that's why it is very NB to do the right thing, otherwise the beaurecrats and greenies will have ammo to get rid of us. I want to kids my boys to places that my old man took me...........
