Booking and campsite facilities

Reserve online, especially for weekends from October to May, which are often booked up to a month ahead. Sites are automatically allocated on a first-come, first-served basis; booked campers can go straight to the campground and display their confirmation on the dashboard. Standard sites allow up to five people and large sites up to ten.

The campground is unpowered. It has public toilets, hot and cold showers, fresh water, wood fireplaces and barbecues; the park recommends bringing a personal gas barbecue too. Accessible toilet and shower facilities are listed, though access to individual sites is not detailed. The park expects peaceful use and prohibits loud music and disruptive behaviour.

“You're approaching Green Patch, a good choice for a beach-and-picnic stop. Its sheltered water suits a first snorkel; around the rock platforms, look for fish, squid and octopus, though visibility varies.”

Bristol Point Campground is a bushland campground in Booderee National Park, set among mature trees and within walking distance of Bristol Point and Green Patch beaches. It works best as a base for beach visits and short walks through the woodland and along the rocky shore. All sites are walk-in, with parking no more than 50 metres from tents; caravans and camper trailers are not suitable, so pack to carry your gear.

Wallabies, possums, many bird species and echidnas have been reported close to tents, and dolphins often frequent Bristol Point. These are possible sightings rather than a guarantee, but the camp puts woodland and shoreline close at hand.
