Information

Camping and fishing area. Perfect for a quiet stay in pristine wilderness of Croajingolong National Park, the small Shipwreck Creek Campground contains only 5 campsites. It offers a secluded camping experience among tall eucalypt trees and is a short walk away from the secluded Shipwreck Beach named after the wreck of The Schah (1837), one of Victoria's oldest shipwrecks.

The campground features fireplaces, shared picnic tables and pit toilets. There is no drinking water available and campers need to bring their own firewood as well.

Explore your surrounds on foot and embark on a short, but scenic walk through windswept coastal heath to the sheltered Shipwreck Creek Beach. For a longer stroll, set out towards Seal Creek and explore the intertidal rockpools teeming with marine life or follow the Heathland Walk — ablaze with wildflowers through spring and summer. Look out for Ground Parrots scurrying across the trail.

Nature being nature, sometimes conditions can change at short notice. It’s a good idea to check ahead of your visit for any updates.Check the Parks Vic website for any planned closures.

Advanced bookings for campsites and accommodation can be made on-line or phone-assisted via the Parks Victoria Information Centre.
