We are encouraging visitors to secure their camping spots at Princetown and Port Campbell Recreation Reserves early to avoid disappointment this summer.  

Great Ocean Road Parks now manages both Port Campbell Recreation Reserve and Princetown Recreation Reserves. 

Whilst the parks will continue to be the same well-loved, family-friendly parks that guests have always known, how to book a campsite has changed. 

To guarantee your stay, bookings are now essential year-round, including during the busy Christmas and peak summer periods. 

Visitors should note that the phone numbers and websites for both reserves have changed. We urge campers to book online or contact the park directly to secure their spot. 

Port Campbell Recreation Reserve:  Book online www.greatoceanroadparks.com.au/port-campbell or call 0431 128 790. 

Princetown Recreation Reserve: Book online www.greatoceanroadparks.com.au/princetown or call 0457 198 662. 

Both reserves offer a range of family-friendly powered and unpowered sites, complete with camp kitchens and barbeques, all within easy reach of the iconic Twelve Apostles. These dog-friendly parks are perfect for a summer escape with your four-legged companion. 

There are now more ways to experience and explore this iconic place, with Great Ocean Road Parks operating 10 beachside parks from Torquay to Port Campbell.

“As summer approaches, our popular caravan parks and camping grounds along the Great Ocean Road tend to fill up fast. Booking early is the best way to avoid scrambling for last-minute alternatives.” 

“Please book ahead to secure your camping spot – arriving without a booking may mean your favourite campground is already full.” 

“Don’t leave it until the last minute—book now to guarantee your spot and enjoy one of Australia’s premier holiday experiences.” 

“With warmer weather just around the corner, we can’t wait to welcome you for an unforgettable caravan and camping adventure.”
