Camping in Western Australia
Find a campground in the forest covered hills or set-up on the beach with white sand and turquoise coloured water when you go camping below Perth on WA’s south coast or head north for a much hotter experience.

Western Australia stretches for thousands of kilometres from north to south with the southern region having a cooler temperatures and landscapes covered in dense vegetation, including Esperance and Margaret River, where-as the northern parts, such as the Kimberley and Karijini, or even Exmouth and Kalbarri on the central coast are very hot and have much more desolate environments.
There are hundreds of camp grounds spread out throughout Western Australia, with the majority being on or close to the coast line, but there are plenty inland, even in the most remote locations.
Most of the descent campgrounds are either in State Parks, National Parks or private land, often with huge distances in between. Plenty of free roadside rest stops and campgrounds are found near the main tourist routes to help split up the long drives.
If you’ve got the option, bring a 4WD along as a lot of the great places to visit and best campgrounds in WA require one, but there are still plenty of places to bring along the 2WD and caravan.
