Plan your Jervis Bay camping trip with our guide to top camping sites and caravan parks, complete with essential details and facilities.
With so much to see and do in Jervis Bay, it’s no surprise that Sydneysiders flock to the South Coast each year for a short holiday break.
While there’s no shortage of hotels in the area, Jervis Bay also boasts a range of camping sites and caravan parks. For many, the chance to reconnect with nature, whether by the beach or in the bush, makes the holiday experience even more special. And Jervis Bay is the perfect destination for a relaxing camping trip.
Below, we’ve listed nine camping sites and caravan parks in the Jervis Bay area in geographical order. Starting in Booderee National Park, we’ll work our way north through Huskisson, Woollamia, and Currarong. Keep in mind that most camping sites require bookings.
1. Cave Beach Camping Ground
Cave Beach, located in Booderee National Park, is a unique stretch of sand named for the fascinating caves at its western end. The largest cave is accessible on foot and offers a great photo opportunity, framing the beach from its interior.
The beach itself is relatively small, especially compared to others in Jervis Bay. Just behind the beach, you’ll find a scenic lookout and a spacious camping and picnic area, often visited by curious kangaroos.
The campground provides unpowered sites and basic amenities, including toilets, showers, barbecues, and fresh water.

2. Bristol Point Camping Ground
The second campsite in Booderee National Park is the Bristol Point Camping Ground, which provides a secluded atmosphere in a picturesque bush setting just behind the beach.
Camping at Bristol Point is walk-in only, so you won’t be able to bring a campervan or camping trailer. However, there’s a nearby parking area, so it’s not as remote as it might seem.
The campground offers unpowered sites with basic amenities, including toilets, showers, barbecues, and fresh water.

The campground offers standard and large-sized sites and accommodates both walk-in and drive-in camping. Facilities include showers, barbecues, picnic tables, and fresh water.

One standout feature of this holiday park is its private boat ramp and floating pontoon. If you have a boat, canoe, or kayak, this is the perfect spot to enjoy some time on the water.

9. Honeymoon Bay
The campground at Honeymoon Bay is nestled right behind the beach of Honeymoon Bay on the Beecroft Peninsula. Camping here is all about getting back to basics. There’s no power and only portaloo toilets, but you’ll have access to a stunning, secluded bay.
This campground operates on a first-come, first-served basis, with no bookings required. However, during the busy summer school holidays, camping spots are allocated through a ballot system, with applications closing on 31 August.
It’s worth noting that the Beecroft Peninsula is also home to the Beecroft Weapons Range. As a result, camping at Honeymoon Bay is subject to the Australian Defence Department’s operational requirements, meaning the campground may be closed to public access at short notice.
