About the campsite:

The designated overnight area provides flat parking suitable for self contained vehicles. Facilities are minimal, reinforcing the purpose of this stop as a scenic overnight base rather than a long stay campground. The location allows easy early morning or evening access to the Pancake Rocks walkway. The surrounding environment features layered limestone formations, crashing surf and coastal walking tracks. During high tide, the blowholes produce dramatic water eruptions that draw visitors from across the country. Sunset and sunrise conditions create strong photographic opportunities along the coastline.
