Beach campground -(Boat-in) – Clyde River National Park (FC)

The location is suitable for Remote/backpack camping.

Beach campground is a secluded camping area on the river. Accessible only by water, it’s a tranquil setting far away from the crowds with a lovely, postcard-perfect beach. It makes for a picturesque picnic spot, and a remote riverside setting to pitch a tent for the night.

Pull up your kayak or canoe, anchor your boat, and find a spot under the trees. Wander down to the sandy beach and enjoy a refreshing swim in the calm waters of the river. Or spread a blanket and relax with a good book while you watch the kids play in the water.
Throw in a fishing line, relax and continue to take in the beautiful surroundings. You might catch a glimpse of a sea eagle in the distance, or a group of waterbirds by the shoreline.

After a peaceful night’s rest by the river, head home feeling refreshed and recharged.
