April, OnslowOcean View Caravan ParkCost $39 pensioner discount per night Rated by us 8/10Mileage 16415 travelled 0Our camp site backs directly onto the ocean and the view and breeze are amazing.

It was all black and a bit strange but interesting none the less.Very relaxing day but getting hot so we set up the air con for the night, it really worked well with a few tweaks and a heap of gaffer tape to seal the door, but we cooled the van to a pleasant 25% and had a great nights sleep. A win for G after the mess up with the batteries and solar not hacking the power.
