Wineglass Bay Overnight Walker Campsite is a small, tent-only camp tucked behind the southern dunes at Wineglass Bay. It is one of the overnight stops on the Freycinet Peninsula Circuit, so you reach it on foot rather than by car. I’d keep it in the plan if you’re walking the circuit: the white-sand beach and clear shallows are right there, and staying gives you time at the bay after day visitors head back.
Bring your water inThere’s a composting toilet, but no dependable drinking water.
There’s a composting toilet, but no dependable drinking water. Carry enough from a reliable source before you start this stretch; don’t count on a tank or a creek. Facilities are basic, with no shower or food service.

The campsite sits behind the southern dunes, with direct access to the beach. Campers value the quieter evening and sunrise here. Wallabies and possums may visit camp, so keep food securely packed overnight.
