Five Mile Beach Campground

This location while painful to get in on rainy days, is wonderful when the weather is nice.

Upon meeting the beach from the track, walk for a further 1km on the sand and the campground will lie on the way to Johnny Souey and Tin Mine Cove.

There are 2 sections of campground: one that fits 5-7 tents and one that fits 2-3 tents. There’s a rope in the campsite too if you want to dry your clothes.

The end of the creek near campsite has salty water, so only good for washing. To get freshwater, either get them when the walking track cuts the creek, or walk deeper along the creek agains the beach direction until water is less salty. No toilets so you have to use the bush.

Important Update - First of all, the campsite is not where this map says where it is. Don’t need to cross the creek for it. The campsite is in the corner of where Miranda creek connects the sea.
Absolutely worth the long walk of 18km from the car park to get here. No need of booking. Just walk in. There are plenty of camping spots available as well. There’s a fresh water source available coming from the mountains just across the creek 20 meters up. Don’t forget to capture the beautiful sunrise from the beach. The five mile track is very wide and clear from start to end. It would take 6-7 hours depending on your speed.

5 stars for the location (campsite and Beach). The trek can't get any better with beautiful views along the way. Though it will take 6 hours, all efforts will be worth it when you reach the beach. We saw few wallaby's along the way. Getting fresh water can be an issue but we found a source just upstream which was suitable enough to boil and drink. In brief, It's an amazing experience to trek and stay in this beach side camp as all you hear at night is waves crashing the shore. As expected No toilets or any basic amenities. A must visit place 🦘✌

An amazing place to be at sunrise, beautiful remote beach with minimal amount of visitors, nature at it's finest similarly to the other Prom northern beaches.Tip -(5 Mile beach has large loose sand granules making it tough on the calves when walking hi and low tide lines)

A real hike to get there. Awesome place to get away from it all.

Love this place ❤
