I can confirm what others said: Lots of loud teenagers hanging around the place in/around the public toilets and leaving them dirty. They eventually left around 7pm. Quiet and safe at night. Toilets were locked at 8.45pm and reopened at 6.30am when the cleaner came. However, he played the radio so loud that you couldn't help but waking up... The place was ok for one night since the other (much nicer) spots were full, but not particularly enjoyable.
Initially, I stayed here because the other free campsite next to the football field didn't have toilets. This one has very clean toilets, and there's enough space for three vehicles. On the downside, in the early evening, young people and adults were walking around the parking lot, sometimes shouting. As a solo traveler, this wasn't very reassuring. I stayed because another van was parked next to mine. I still had a good night's sleep. I recommend it if you're not alone.
Space available when the other free spots were full. Toilets were clean, bit of the seatless kind, and dont open between 9:30pm and around 7:30am when the cleaner comes. Was safe but super noisy up until 11pmosh on a friday night, then was regular traffic every hour or so going along the service road, so a pretty rubbish sleep unless you use earplugs, which i dont. Good for a night at a pinch, but try the other 3 sites first if you can.
There was a bunch of young people playing music loudly, but they left around 9 p.m so it was okay. Just that the vibe was not the most welcoming. Overall OK place for staying one night (all the other freedom campsites were full), except toilets were closed before 9 p.m, only men urinals were open whole night. I was a bit uncomfortable because of previous review about rock in the window, but for us there were no issues.
There were five of us in vans on the night of February 6th. At 2:00 AM, a man came into the parking lot and broke a window of one of the vans by throwing a rock. We didn't sleep a wink after that. I absolutely do not recommend it!!! The toilets close at 10:00 PM, it's right in the city center, and it's quite noisy. I'm a bit surprised by the other reviews of this free campsite.
Recommended, 5 points. Bathrooms in the back. One block from the main street.
Toilets right opposite, they stayed open all night. There were 5 of us in vans, a bit cramped but it did the job.
As a solo traveler i felt safe! Quiet place and toilets just in front of. Parking was full by 6.30
A safe spot nearby toilets although they closed at night. Right next to town. Great to nab a free night
Great carpark. Right in the center of town and just 5 min walk to the beach. Toilets were very clean. They close at 9.30 pm
