Our TOP 7 LOW COST camps in Western Australia (Under $20)

This campground is just 10km north of Jurien Bay and is one you do not want to miss! It costs just $20 per vehicle, per night and offers beach front camping. There are 78 2WD accessible sites, which offer picnic areas, a dump point & non-potable water. There are also 4WD only sites north of the 2WD access campsites, however, there are no facilities so you must be fully self-contained with a portable toilet, drinking water & grey water tank. Your furry friends can come along as this campsite is dog friendly!

The is a 4WD accessible campsite in Horrocks and costs just $15 per vehicle, per night. The only facilities at this campsite are toilets & bins, so come prepared! This is the perfect little fishing spot and some beautiful beaches to explore by 4WD. This one is pet friendly as well!

I bet you are thinking Lucky Bay in Esperance…? Well you are wrong!! This is the Lucky Bay just 30 minutes south of Kalbarri, and might I say, it’s just as good as the Esperance Lucky Bay (but quieter). This campground is $15 per vehicle, per night & has 2WD accessible sites as well as 4WD only. There are toilets, picnic tables, a dump point & bins at the campground, however, if you wish to camp on the beach you must have your own chemical toilet. The campground is first come first served and you do not need to prebook. Dogs are permitted but must be on a leash at all times.

This campground is located 26 kilometres south of Denham and is run by the Shire of Shark Bay. To stay here you must obtain a permit by ringing through to the Shark Bay Discovery Centre and it is $15 per vehicle to stay here. The sites are 2WD accessible and there are no facilities. There is options of beach front campsites or you can park away from the water. We went snorkelling & fishing while we were here and caught heaps of Bluebone, although most were undersized so we didn’t get to keep any but it was still loads of fun!

Before we tell you about this one, be warned it is a LONG way in & the road is VERY corrugated (this was back in May/June 2021 when we were there so conditions may have changed since then). However, it is well worth it and definitely somewhere you would want to spend at least a week. False Entrance campsite is $11 per person, per night and you can book this through the Department of Parks and Wildlife website. There is no service at this campsite & the sites are spread far apart, we stayed at site 1 which was nice and secluded with the beach access at our doorstep (see the photo below). From False Entrance we day tripped out to Steep Point which was amazing. If we were to go again, we would leave the van at False Entrance & take a swag or tent out to Steep Point & stay there for a few nights, it was amazing!! The water was crystal clear, there were heaps of fish around & there were so many spots to explore.

Well if you have read our blog previously or watched our YouTube videos you will already know this is our FAVOURITE place in Western Australia. This spot is $8 per person per night and you can prebook through the Department of Parks and Wildlife website. Warroora Station stretches for over 50km of the coastline and there is so many sites to choose from. We would recommend the Stevens Campsite or alternatively you can stay at the Homestead which offers toilets & showers. See why we love this spot so much in the video below

This campground is in the Cape Range National Park in Exmouth. It is just $11 per person per night and is booked through the Department of Parks and Wildlife website. We would recommend visiting this area during June/July as it can get very windy later in the year. The campground overlooks a small bay and is 2WD accessible. All campsites are unpowered and you are not allowed pets. See the video below for a short clip of the campsite & beach.
