    Great place to stay. Easy to obtain permit online, you can also get it in person at the visitors centre in town. 7 vehicles max, & well defined spaces. Extra campers stayed & parked in non-permit spaces, not sure if anyone checks? Felt safe & slept well. Great to have free parking options in town!

    Great location. Is in a car park behind Bunbury surf club. Easy to book online for a permit. Toilets and cold showers in public toilets on beach not that far away. Surf club does meals (sit in or take away) until 8pm. Quite a bit of road noise.

    Save yourself the trip. The information is either out of date or incorrect. Unfortunately, there is nowhere (anymore) to stand here
