We will be leaving
Perth after Christmas and will have about 6 weeks to make our way back to Tassie. We were hoping to
check out Esperance/Cape le Grande, Eyre Peninsula,
Yorke Peninsula on the way
home...buuuuuttt...don't have any
camp sites booked. Is it a lost cause? Any tips for where we could stay or other routes
home please? Family of 4 towing a camper trailer.

Hi Jannette
We were caught at
Easter , in southern WA , and ended up visiting the wheat areas for a few days. All good.
Why don't you call a couple of caravan parks in the towns and ask them. Might be an idea to rough out a timetable and make some calls. With a family , and I guess a need for
toilets and showers, you do need to have a bit of certainty for a greater part of the trip.
Cheers
Jim

Well you have certainly taken on a challenge. Pretty much anything close to the ocean is normally booked a year ahead on EP and Yorkes. Especially if you are looking for a powered site. For example, we booked a site at
Streaky Bay in March this year and they only had four to choose from back then
If you log on to your Parks site and
check out both those NP's you will find they are also pretty much fully booked already as
well. WA allows bookings six months ahead which makes things challenging to plan much with them.
You will find the same challenge/issues on our
Limestone Coast.
Robe and
Beachport will already be fully booked pretty much. Although there's some smaller private parks down that way that just may have some vacancies.
All the best with it. Phoning around now is a good way to get your trip plan organised
