Safety alerts: Road Conditions - Crowdy Bay National Park

Park visitors are advised that the best road access for low clearance vehicles, or vehicles towing caravans, to Diamond Head, Indian Head and Kylies Beach campgrounds is from the north on Diamond Head Road via Laurieton. Turn off the Pacific Highway at Kew to access Laurieton. 

Access to Crowdy Bay NP campgrounds from the Moorland exit is generally more challenging for towing due to narrow roads and poorer road surface.
