First Sun Holiday Park<\/h2>\n

Wake to the sound of waves crashing on the sand at Wreck Beach from your campground located just metres away at First Sun Holiday Park.<\/a> First Sun Holiday Park in Byron Bay is popular with both caravanners and campers and includes barbecue and picnic areas, well-equipped camp kitchens as well as 24-hour security.<\/p>\n\n

This is not an episode of\u00a0Survivor<\/em>\u00a0or\u00a0Bear Grylls<\/em>: if you run out of baked beans, you can just pop up to the shops in the town centre. The site options include unpowered and powered sites, two of which will cater to large motor homes if you decide on a sudden upgrade.<\/p>\n

Reflections Clarkes Beach<\/h2>\n

You can pitch your tent on prime real estate\u00a0at Reflections Holiday Park,<\/a> which has campgrounds dotted up and down the coast of NSW. Again, this is not\u00a0Nomadland<\/em>. You are not unmoored from society; the campsite is located just a short walk away from the main strip of bars, restaurants and shops. Despite being so close to the bustle of Byron Bay, you will still be able to hear the gentle lapping of waves and birdsong in the air of an early morning. The campground has a kitchen, BBQ and laundry facilities as well as school holiday activities and even wi-fi.<\/p>\n

Discovery Parks Byron Bay<\/h2>\n

Want to convince your better half about the merits of camping? Will an ozone-filtered swimming pool and a deluxe safari tent do the trick? Discovery Park Byron Bay is located only two kilometres from town near the banks of Belongil Creek, which snakes through the dense bushland.<\/p>\n\n

The holiday park, which also includes a range of cabins, powered and unpowered sites for tents and vans, is predominately aimed at families who like to socialise as it includes shared BBQ facilities, laundry, a camp kitchen and caf\u00e9 as well as a bouncing pillow, waterpark and wi-fi. Despite having the convenience of modern facilities, you can still hear the creak of forest birds and the rhythm of the ocean.<\/p>\n

Byron Bay Holiday & Caravan Park<\/h2>\n

The beauty about camping near to the township of Byron Bay is that if anything goes pear-shaped you can just duck into town? Kids have an earache? Pop into the chemist. Tired of tin spaghetti?

Hard-core campers will love the bush camping vibe and the fact the campground is home to resident koalas, echidnas, wallabies and native birds. You can even spot whales from within the confines of the park.<\/p>\n
