Now, on the 9th day, the wind was becoming a bit of a nuisance (at 14 mile). So we decided to do a day trip along the station to see if there was any better spots to camp. Wow! Definitely do the drive! We stopped into every spot and each one was beautiful and unique. We drove all the way down to the south boundary fence and back. You can even pop into the homestead and grab a cold drink or an ice-cream- if you have some loose change laying about.
All armed with our new knowledge from our adventure, we had our last night at 14 mile before hitching up and heading north to a camp called ‘Stevens’. We got our van up to what we dubbed as ‘The VIP spot’ and parked it there for 6 nights. Only a 15 second walk from our camp, led to some beautiful beaches.
There was a great fishing gully right off the beach, two calm bays for swimming/ snorkelling and sandy beaches each way for miles. The best part was because it was off peak - no one was around. We only saw 2 pairs of day trippers over our 6 night stay.
Our ‘Stevens’ campsite, was up there with one of our favourites of the trip so far! We loved it. And to top it off, there was a small sand dune behind our camp we would climb and get service (both telstra & optus) to check the weather, emails and stay in touch with the world. We reckon the sand dune would also make for some good skim boarding.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Steven's Surf Beach camping area is one of 3 surf breaks on Warroora, and therefore the habitat of travellers keen to spend days surfing its breaks.
The camping area is back behind the primary dune which offers some protection from the prevailing winds.
You need a 4WD to get to Stevens, set up camp and then it's only a 5 minute walk/paddle to find yourself a wave.

Epic spot is an understatement. I can imagine the sand under my feet the coldness of a stubbie in my hand the gentle breeze in my face and a beautiful sunset to ogle.

Unhitch it at the top and check it out first. Everyone's setup is different so that's the best advice I got. It was pretty easy for us.. didn't even want to get bogged which was a relief

Blaine has 4wheeled most his life, the tyres would be as low as he could go... Most likely 16-18Psi any lower and would pop a bead as its a touring 4x4 and problem maxed legal weight.

The massive log is not native to the area. Pretty clear that somebody left it behind?

@BEETLEJ00CE 5 жыл бұрын

Great video but you’re not allowed to collect firewood at Warroora station. Showing this sets a poor example to others. The conditions for camping clearly state no wood collection.

@Sparkysontheloose 5 жыл бұрын

Hey Beetle, the reason we left this in the video is because we thought it was obvious that the massive log isn't native to the area and has been left behind by another camper. We respect the environment and the rules, im sorry if you feel like this portrays us as irresponsible influencers/campers.

@BEETLEJ00CE 5 жыл бұрын

Sparkys on the loose Thanks for the explanation but I reckon it would’ve been wise to mention this in the vid. Your reach to the general public is wider than you think. Keep travelling but be mindful of this. Good to know you have this audience!

Did you read the information sheet before you camped there, it states you CANNOT use wood on the the station for firewood, we have camped there many times and sadly its people like you that ruins it for everyone else

@Sparkysontheloose 2 жыл бұрын

The wood is not native to the area, another camper had left it behind. We thought that was pretty obvious. The only way the place will get closed down is when the government locks it up, which looks like its in progress. They might even build some high rises and sell it off. Enjoy everything while you can Mike.
