About this campground
At the end of a rough, sandy track, this was the location of a pearling camp in the late 1880's and old pearl shells can still be seen in the area. More recently a small fish canning factory and then a fish freezer preserved fish for market. The freezer closed in 1947.
The campsite has a toilet. There is no drinking water so ensure you bring enough for your stay.
Small boats can be launched from the beach although there are no facilities for this and vehicle access is through very soft sand.
