  • This is a popular campground. It’s a good idea to book early, particularly during summer.
  • This campground is not suitable for large caravans. You can bring small caravans and trailers if towed by high clearance 4WDs.
  • You can buy firewood at the campground.
  • Pebbly Beach is unpatrolled. It has no lifeguard service, dangerous rip currents, sudden drop offs and unexpected large waves. The ocean may look idyllic, but conditions can change rapidly.
  • The safest place to swim is between the red and yellow flags at a patrolled beach. The closest one is Red Rock South.

Pebbly Beach campground sits by a small bay north of Station Creek Beach.

Getting to this remote campground is as much an adventure as staying there – you’ll need to drive along the beach and cross a saltwater estuary at low tide.

Once you’re there, the fun really begins. Settle into a spacious campsite, just metres from the she-oak lined shore, then start exploring. You’ll find great walking tracks in the area, and the nearby headlands are excellent for whale watching.

True to its name, the beach features ‘pebbly’, gravel-like sand and is a fantastic place for swimming and fishing.
