Join The Mailing ListPosted by Tom in Destinations | I touch on the personal and shed a few thoughts on being home, but this is also a research post – it’s time to round up some of the best camping spots that I would love to check out in Australia! So it’s been a little quiet around here lately.

I’m back home, in Australia, and I’ve been re-adjusting to life. Is the travelling over? Of course not, it never is. However I am actually excited to start exploring my own country, before I had left Australia to discover the rest of the world I had absolutely no interest in seeing all that Australia had to offer. Sure I’ve been to Sydney and Melbourne and Adelaide and down a fair bit along the coast, but Australia is HUGE and the checklist of what I have done here is minuscule. Europeans love Australia, and Australians love Europe – oh the irony. Often it can feel like the grass is always greener. You know what though? It’s slowly dawning on me that Australia has some very green grass indeed! Doing some camping is high on the list, so let’s discover some of the brilliant camping areas found around Australia. This one is closest to where I am living at the moment (Brisbane!). Immerse yourself amongst the white sandy beaches and explore the rain forests and freshwater lakes found amongst the island.

Over 184,000 hectares, get ready to go camping on the largest sand island in the world. Why I’ve never been before is a mystery – this is the first one I’ll be knocking off the list! It’s good to be home! The track along here, known as the “Main Range Track”, is considered one of the greatest day walks in Australia. The best time to experience this walk and the number of campsites in the area is between December and March when the Australian wild flowers are in full bloom.pelicantm u105 urban laptop backpack This area is a national park and is about 5 hours drive from Sydney, I’ve been skiing around here before in winter but never came in summer. bauer apx backpackIt’s on my to-do list, what about yours?puchibag backpack

The gorgeous white sands of Booderee National Park is an absolute gem for camping. This area really showcases Australian bush at its best with some amazing walking trails. There are three camp sites to choose from in the area: Green Patch, Bristol Point and Cave Beach. How’s this for a view from the toilet? Ryan’s Den is a campsite found along the 7 day “Great Ocean Walk”, it’s a basic camp site with a composting toilet and fabulous views.deglingos backpack canada The Great Ocean Walk is another Aussie adventure that I want to conquer!karrimor zodiak backpack Welcome to stunning Western Australia. especial cuatro backpack reviewThis is Lucky Bay. Famed for having one of the most beautiful beaches in Australia, watch out for the Kangaroos that like to laze in the pristine white sand.

The campsite here acts on a first-come, first-serve basis (you cannot make bookings ahead). Bring along your camping equipment and gas stove, and don’t forget your swimmers and snorkel – this is a little slice of paradise. So there you have it, some of the awesome camping spots found all throughout Australia. We can’t touch Europe on history, but we rival the best of them when it comes to nature!
