Description
Illaroo campground offers scenic beach camping sites for caravans, tents and trailers. Near Grafton and Wooli, it's great for fishing, swimming, canoeing and snorkelling.
There are 60 unpowered campsites suitable for tents, camper trailers, caravans and camping beside your vehicle. Facilities include picnic tables, barbecue facilities, drinking water and toilets. Drinking water is available, now with town water taps at each end of the park. The northern and southern parts of the campground are separated by a small depression which becomes a creek in heavy rain.
Park entry fees apply. All sites must be pre-booked.
Lovely walks, including the Angophora Grove walk, are nearby and the beach offers an endless array of options - from fishing to swimming to snorkelling. If you're into canoeing try the nearby and stunning Wooli River and fishing boats can be launched from Minnie Water. In fact, it's almost too easy to while away your days in this idyllic spot - you'll never want to leave.
Check the weather before you set out as the road to Illaroo campground can become boggy when it rains. You can access the beach with your 4WD.
Generators, pets and smoking are not permitted.
