Dont confuse the Port Sinclair Campground which is actually a declared 2012 National Surfing Reserve and privately owned with the Cactus Beach carpark out the front. The camp ground is accessible after a 20km turn off from Penong. The road is partially bitumen for about a quarter with the remainder quality gravel. The track has corregations in sections but taking it easy and slow will get all safely in including motorhomes. You enter the privately owned camp ground thru a gste which must be opened and closed. This camp ground is $17.50@adult@ nite. No power nor water however flushing toilets provided. Caretaker Chris will come around late arvo to ensure loos are clean and stocked, drop wood at firepits and collect your fees. Lots of areas to camp. A chill experience with serenity aplenty. Lots of walkways to the beach. Although not a 'surfie' this area attracts them and there were surfers in the sea on our visit. Worth a visit if yr got the time when doing the Nullabour crossing. The other Cactus Beach car park is 1.4km BEFORE the Pt Sinclair camp ground indicated by turn off sign off to your right (heading to camp ground). Take it easy and wind your way in. Bit rocky in places but huge open flat areas to explore but absolutely nothing out...
Read moreBeautiful area! Highly worth a nights stay or visit.
Point Sinclair Campsite is the only camp site in the area. Other websites were a bit confusing. We were originally looking for a free one. There is no free campsite. It all seems to be Point Sinclair Campsite. There were lots of little nooks and areas for setting up camp. Plenty of room for caravans or camper cans.
Recommend stopping at general store before hand for groceries.
Easy sign postage to area. Drive through Lake Macdonnell to get there (light pink lake beside blue lake). Best to arrive in daylight. Good road - compact sand, minimal pot holes.
Simple facilities. Nice, neat clean flush toilets with soap and toilet paper. Water is not drinkable.
$15 per adult. $5 per child. A grounds keeper will come round to say g’day, collect payment and give you info.
Lovely scenic and peaceful area. Plenty of other campers in area. Few regulars. Everyone very friendly.

Read moreClean tidy campground with a long history - basic facilities but no water. It's sparse and open so not much privacy - Conservation is big on the agenda here, but again a little contradicted by overcrowding the campsite with some areas campers literally in each other's pockets.I was told there was buckets load of space - I found two vacant camp sites by the main road. Pick your time of year carefully to visit, at the right time it would...
