Toilets

Please be aware that toilet paper is not supplied to bush campground toilets, so come prepared with your own supply. Consider the environment you enjoy while camping and ‘leave no trace’ for others to find. Campers should never bury toilet paper or other leavings in the fragile dunes or campgrounds. 

  • All but 2 small campgrounds have a toilet (Foul Bay Boat Ramp and Tiparra)

  • Although toilets are available in most campgrounds, visitors are still encouraged to be self-contained. In recent years, maintenance and environmental issues have increased substantially, with regular occurrences of toilet paper waste in the dunes, used nappies dumped in the campground and cassettes/port-a-loos being emptied into the ocean. This all needs to be cleaned up and/or managed by someone.

  • For those visitors that prefer more comprehensive facilities (running water, flushing toilets, showers, etc.) we recommend staying in one of the many beautiful Yorke Peninsula caravan parks.

Why aren’t there flushing toilets?

  • Insufficient water supply.
