Safety alerts: Visitor Advisory - Road Access to Crowdy Bay National Park Campgrounds

Visitors are advised that the most suitable access route for low-clearance vehicles or those towing caravans to Diamond Head, Indian Head, and Kylies Beach campgrounds is via Diamond Head Road from the north, through Laurieton. To reach Laurieton, take the Kew exit from the Pacific Highway.

Access to Crowdy Bay National Park campgrounds via the Moorland exit is generally more challenging for vehicles towing caravans, due to narrower roads and a lower quality road surface.

For further information, please contact the local NPWS office at (02) 6588 5555.
