Information

The campground is just outside of the Umagico township on the beach. There are powered and unpowered sites available however all of the beachfront sites are unpowered. There are a lot of trees so if you are relying on off-grid power, choose your site wisely. Access is via a small, sealed hill on to red dirt. The access road is wide and clear and suitable for all types of vehicles and campers/caravans. The campground has a lovely, well maintained swimming pool so you can get your water fix without the threat of crocs. Umagico (and the surrounding towns) have wild horses roaming the streets and horses regularly wander through the campground. They are friendly enough however it's important to bear in mind that they are wild. Music can be heard playing from the nearby township on occasion however its not intrusive and its never prevented or interrupted sleep. The staff are very friendly and proactive in ensuring the campground is tidy and free of rubbish. The kiosk runs on Cape time, so if you arrive and it's closed, just set up your camp and someone will show up at some point during your stay!
Collect key and pay at supermarket.
