Busselton Free Camping Spots

• Dardanup Hall Car Park

While the campground listed above is free to stay at, it is important to note that it is only suitable for campervan camping, especially as it has limited amenities. Contact Travellers Autobarn today to learn more about hiring a campervan, and we’ll make sure you’re in the perfect vehicle for your camping needs.

A Quick Note on Free Camping in Busselton

Before we start looking at this free campground, there’s one very important fact to address. Free camping isn’t allowed within the City of Busselton under the Caravan Parks and Camping Grounds Act 1995. This basically means that you can’t just pull up and camp wherever you want in town. Western Australia takes this legislation very seriously, as its purpose is to preserve the area’s natural beauty, and breaking this law can result in a fine.

Dardanup Hall Car Park

Located 40 minutes from Busselton Town Centre, Dardanup Hall Car Park is a great option for anyone looking for a free campsite that isn’t too far away from the action. The amenities here are basic, consisting of flush toilets and drinking water, but this gives you everything you need for a comfortable overnight stay.

One thing to keep in mind before staying here is that spots are offered on a first-come-first-served basis, so you’ll need to arrive early to increase your chances. Also, you are limited to a maximum stay of just 24 hours, so while it’s ideal for a safe place to camp overnight, it’s not suitable for long-term camping.

Don’t let the lack of amenities or the restrictions put you off staying here because what really makes Dardanup Hall Car Park shine is how close it is to the Ferguson Valley, where you’ll find no shortage of things to do! There are plenty of hiking trails to explore, as well as wineries and restaurants that any foodie will love. Also, if you’re travelling with kids (or just enjoy a touch of whimsy yourself), a 15-minute drive will take you to Gnomesville, where you’ll find a collection of garden gnomes in all shapes, sizes, and positions!

FEATURED AMENITIES

• Flush Toilets
• Drinking Water
