Low Cost Beach Camping in Western Australia

We leave beautiful Gladstone Bay and head to Carnarvon to refuel, restock and get some reprieve from the hot weather with the gorgeous caravan park pool. After getting some advice from the locals, we decided to move on after 1 night to Point Quobba where the blowholes are and you can camp. This was an amazing spot but it wasn't all sunsets and swimming, sure enough, we get bogged!

Well you two, I have watched all your episodes and only picked up tonight that King Billy is a Vietnam Vet! Who did he serve with, I was 6RAR 69/70. Now I see why he loves sleeping under the stars! Cheers guys, keep up the great work - love it!

Another amazing episode. The footage from the drone was amazing, cruising the sand dunes and all your adventures. Continue to enjoy guys and have a great time. Ps- Laura, considering you are living in your caravan and traveling AUS, your van is so clean and tidy, you’re organised and it’s clear you take pride. 😊 Owen

Thanks Owen 😍. We both like to keep the caravan as clean as possible. keeping the outside clean is proving to be a challenge 🤔

Great episode thoroughly enjoyed as usual, for King Billy the perfect sleeping arrangement is a stretcher bed with self inflating mattress and fullly mossy midge proof and plenty of fresh air. Also the under van lighting is a winner. How did you do it as keen to do install on mine👏👏

Great content tonight guys the musical videos are about spot on. In older videos they were simetimes a bit long and i would fast foward. Next time you drive past SCA, grab a set of Max Trax Tell Tails. They will stop you digging through the sand to find the bloody things.

You guys have got the pack up and set up down to a tee. Ask Troy what he has done with the straps for the max trax 😆 would it be easier to get them out if they were on? Your next episode looks like it’s going to be a good one.

Hey Katherine, it's taken many years of practice 😆. Yep, we have the straps we didn't put them on.

With those door locks after you lock the door, press on the door near the lock. Sometimes, the lock will pop out as the door is not properly locked it's one of the last thing we check around the van before locking the door

Another great episode guys...last night I was bingeing your channel and on one of the eps Troy had snow water proof stuff for his shoes.. I was positive I would remember what it was called ..yeah anyway I forgot like 2 minutes later and now can't remember which video it was in..😢 Also on another one the charging station you built Troy ..you're da man that was cool.

I found your vlog and despite your title of low cost this site is expensive $70😮. I have heard sites are generally expensive in WA and few free spots if any . Sites must be suitable for a single or couple with a dog. I am looking to travel Darwin to Perth and into south Australia but not at the costs I am seeing at the moment. Perhaps you have found some more affordable sites $30 or less .Don’t need power or anything fancy . .? Thanks

The low-cost camping reference was to Quobba 30 per night. 70 was in town for 4 people. There is plenty of low-cost camping around WA, but if you have 45 degree days, you will want to stay at caravan parks with a pool.
