Bulahdelah Camps
Bulahdelah Lions Park is one of the many great camps in this town. This is a donation camp by the river but you can also camp at the showground, the golf club or the bowling club. We stayed at the bowling club last time we passed through and would recommend it. It has power and water if you need it (Read our full post on the bowls club camp here)
Bulahdelah Lions Park River Camp
We chose this 72 hour camp as we liked the look of it last time. Also, we had already filled our water tanks at our stop in Kempsey and our solar was topped up.
You can park parallel to the river here, if there is room (it’s a busy place!) If you don’t fit by the river you can park in several other places no mater what size rig you have.
The area is mostly gravel but has grassed areas around the BBQ and seating area. There is also also a boat ramp in this area if you want to put your tinnie in.
Walk To Shops
Over the bridge from the camp is the main street. As well as public toilets, you will find, the IGA, pub, cafe’s, bakery, butcher, pharmacy, news agent, bottle shop and hair dresser.
This camp is for fully self-contained vehicles and is worth stopping off at.
