Camps 10 Review of Guide

Our family of 6 has been camping heavily for the past 10 years. Which lead us to an unforgettable 1 year of travelling around Australia with a Jayco Eagle.

==>Download our “Travel Australia on a Budget Spreadsheet” <==

This was the best travel experience of our lives and it wouldn’t have been possible without the Camps Australia Wide Guides. Finding cheap and amazing destinations around Australia on your own is so hard because of the massive size of our beautiful country.

At the time of our big lap of Australia, we had the Camps 5 Australia Wide Guide. It was so helpful and allowed us to camp for free or cheap and within our budget everywhere around Australia. The new guide is basically the same but totally updated with some extra helpful content.

Now we have the new Camps 10 Guide which looks and feels amazing!

We saved thousands using this book. If you think spending a few dollars on the best guide in Australia isn’t worth it, just consider that one night where you have to spend $80 dollars a night for an unpowered site all because you don’t know where the cheap camping is located.

With Camps 10 you will know where the cheap campsites are. This guide will make you the expert, the local, and give you life experiences you can only dream of.

Don’t just take our word for it, ask anybody who loves camping which is the best guide and they will all recite the words ‘Camps Australia Wide 10’!

Now you are looking for the map number page of your required area. Maps are at the beginning of each state and are colour coded.

Once found follow the legend at front of the book to see what the campsite includes.

That is basically how easy it is. And each state of Australia is colour coded so do the same for any area.

Site Index For Campsites

The guides include a site index at the back of the guide if you already know the name of your campsite which makes it even quicker.

When is the Best Time to Go Camping in Australia?

If you don’t know much about Australia you probably think that the whole country is just hot all the time. Well, it’s not! It can be bloody freezing in winter and that is even way out West.

Australia is a country of extremes depending on where you go, so make sure you are informed before going too remote and always carry safety gear.

Best Season To Go Camping in Australia

Australia is a massive country and remember everything is opposite to the northern hemisphere. So winter in Australia is summer in Europe and America.

Everything is opposite to what you think with Australia. The general rule of thumb is:

• Head north in the winter – spring months
• Travel south in the summer and Autum months

If you can get this roughly right you will experience the best of our sunburnt country.

Summertime in Australia

Summer can get really hot in all parts of Australia but tends to be unbearable in the north of Queensland, Northern Territory, and northern parts of West Australia.

This is also the wet season in the north which can see cyclones and floods. Most areas are closed in the very north at this time of year. Places that close in the summertime are:

• The Kimberley region – WA
• Cape York – QLD
• Gulf of Carpenteria – NT

Heading to the outback is not advised also during this time because the temperatures can reach high into the 40-50 Degrees Celcius. This is not pleasant and can be dangerous for your health.

Summertime in the South is better because you will have low humidity and less rain. Saying this they do experience heat waves which can get really hot, up to 45 degrees Celcius. This is a dry heat.

Avoid School Holidays

Camping in Australia is hugely popular with local Australians. So make sure you try to coordinate your trip out of school holiday periods.

If you don’t you will find most campgrounds will be packed and you will be forced to camp in the worst areas.

During these times prices rise so make sure to avoid these key Australian dates below:

State:	Dates For Australian School Holidays:	Year:
1. QLD	11 DEC-28 JAN / 4 APR-19APR / 26 JUN – 13 JUL / 18 SEP – 6 OCT	2020

How Much are Campsites in Australia?

Campsite costs will depend on a few factors. First of all, it will depend on:

• Whether you choose a powered or unpowered site
• Number of People Travelling in family or group
• Ages of children (Under 2-3 is usually free)
• Season of travel (Off-peak / Peak)
• Location of Camp area (Beachfront / City etc)
• Size of the rig (Some sites charge extra for larger caravans or trailers)

As a rough guide prices start from around $35 to $80 a night in most major camping areas.

The more remote you go expect to pay less. Camping has really seen a boom over the last few years which has drastically affected prices everywhere.

Usually, you can visit most site’s websites to find out how much you are going to have to pay.

Hot tip! Make sure you book in advance in popular spots because you will miss out!

Where Can you Camp for Free in Australia?

There are a million camp areas in Australia that are free.

But the only real way to find them is to get your hands on the Camps 10 Australia Wide Guide that will show you where to find them.
