Beachport / Robe Beach SA Christmas 2014

[MudRunnerTD]

Hey guys

I am putting up a trip to Beachport / Robe for the Christmas break 2014. It will either be between Christmas and NewYear to return home in first week of Jan 2015 or starting 2nd Jan for a Week.

Beach and Sand Dune driving. Family beach fun, powered sites at the caravan park.

Who is interested? For which week? Need to book before the end of January to get some good space at a caravan park guys.

Hands Up!!

UPDATE!!


Cape jaffa can fit us in but again split.
Can do 10 powered in a group, but across a road.
Unpowered can be in a group..
$30 powered, $28 unpowered
$8 extra but kids under 12 free (to be confirmed)
One night deposit and no refund for 1 month out..

Dog friendly..

Only down fall is were limited to the 9th..
But can book in from the 1st..

OK Cape Jaffa is where its at guys.

30kms North of Robe.

http://www.capejaffacp.com.au/

Beach / 4WD Maps of the area can be found here

http://www.wattlerange.sa.gov.au/page.aspx?u=440

Give the park a call and book your spot.

[growler2058]

Yup!!!!!! Don't discount the southend caravan park

[BigRAWesty]

Ok this one I am in for.
For sure. It's our mount Christmas to so happy for the week between..

Yea ha.. Cheers MR..

[BigRAWesty]

Do we need caravan parks though?? Heaps of top camping spots threw the dunes

[MudRunnerTD]

Absolutely. Hot showers, toasters, flushing toilets, our wives will thank us.

[BigRAWesty]

Absolutely. Hot showers, toasters, flushing toilets, our wives will thank us.

Yea fair call. So we aiming for a group lot? I think we stayed in beachport, a year ago. Heaps of open space. Beach across the road..
And was good prices. This was aus day long weekend though..

[mudnut]

Mrs mudsane reckons the first week in January is the go for this trip. She is quite happy to go camping in the dunes. I can't say "Lock us in" at this stage as we usually have family staying with us. Maybe there could be two groups for this meet up. The 'chardonay' drinkers can go "real" camping in the caravan park, and the others to go camping in the dunes. Do you have in mind any particular place to camp, Kallen?

[MudRunnerTD]

I am going to put this up with a group I am in in Geelong too and hope to get 5 or 6 cars from there and 10 or 15 cars from here, would be ideal to book a larger section at a caravan park with a place to light a fire and communal gathering area. Splitting into 2 groups would not be ideal I don't think to be honest.

I know it's Christmas and keen to take the camper and setup for a week of relaxation and community.

I am happy with the first week in January too but want to see some more feedback.

[mudnut]

No worries, MR. I should've put LOL after the post. There is supposed to be some great driving in that area, and there is some good fishing spots as well.

[Maxhead]

Yep, got it Dazz. Will try and make this one

[jack]

No guarantees, BUT first week in Jan would be the only time suitable for us.

[Winnie]

Sounds interesting.

[growler2058]

Southend Caravan park has caravan and cabins but also a huge bush camping area so maybe possible to accommodate for all???

I reckon the inlaws would be in aswell..
We stayed at beachport and you close to lots of nice areas there. Twas the park. Mount g side of beachport..

[Maxhead]

I'm ganna have bugger all leave as I have 5 weeks off in July this year and have relos coming from overseas in Jan/Feb....I might have to put them off till next century maybe...LOL
I'm keen but can't confirm anything till later in the year

[jack]

I'm also thinking Crayfish & Abalone, we dived the reef off Southend a few years ago and there was a nice feed.

[Bob]

Would love to be in this but unfortunately cannot commit that far ahead at present.

Will look at it closer to the date and maybe will be lucky to get in

[Sir Roofy]

1st of jan would be ok see how we go -you like putting your head on the chopping block mate
look at the middle meet 53 contenders now down to 8 or iflucky a few more

its a maybe

[Stropp]

like all trips roofy, everyone would love to go but then reality bites and you only end up with a few hardcore members that dont like to miss anything and the other few that are lucky enough to be able to have the stars align so they can make it. Im the later one :) so far

[Sir Roofy]

like all trips roofy, everyone would love to go but then reality bites and you only end up with a few hardcore members that dont like to miss anything and the other few that are lucky enough to be able to have the stars align so they can make it.

understand that just seems a bit early for ppl to be able to decide while getting together for the simpson trip
as i said its a maybe for us and another goal to aim for

[jack]

Yeap same as our Cape trip, we had 22 confirmed starters and ended with 7. Of those only 2 were forum members, things can change rapidly that's why I'm only a possibility.

[MudRunnerTD]

i have chosen to post this now as its the Christmas break and without a booking in January we may struggle to get a decent spot for next year. many will book their site for next year on the way out this year.

I did not get away this year and have not been to Beach Port for about 5 years and Keen as Curry.

This is happening regardless, if your keen then put your names down. we will be looking for deposits in a few months i reckon to hold your spot.

If you ahve never done any Beach Work then this is one you should not Miss, The Best time!!! Sooooooo much fun!

THe run down the beach from Beach Port to Robe is 78kms on the beach and between the Dunes. All Terrains are fine and a good sense of humour.

[growler2058]

IN in IN IN IN inin IN IN......................

[BigRAWesty]

Road tyres are fine to. What I used last time.

Just rang beachport cp, and advised to book by the end of Jan to secure a group plot.

Didn't ask about deposits or refunds if you cancel..

[Winnie]

Yeah I'm keen but like other will not say I am coming for sure because of the Simpson trip and all.

[BigRAWesty]

I have 3 cars coming.. Myself, my bros 80 and parents prado.
So 3 extras but will only need 1 site

[mudnut]

Fishing, sand boarding, sand driving... sounds like our place every weekend:). I am looking forward to this trip, it's just getting teenagers to commit to the time frame so far ahead is almost impossible.

[Bloodyaussie]

I may be interested for the first week in January but will be in Qld for Xmas so things may be stretched ..... We will see?

[BigRAWesty]

Right'o you lazy pack of shoits..
Now that the middle orgy has passed let's get this southend chrissy meet happening..

Let's get serious.
I'm making some calls tomorrow for sites but imo realistically it's been left to late for a mass group..

So please as per norm list below with names. And please state any special needs. If you just post a name I'll assume an unpowered site will suffice.

I'll hopefully be able to report tomorrow arvo site prices and availability.
Cheers

Westy's crew of 4

So like 3rd (Saturday) to the 9th or 10th (Friday - Saturday)

[BigRAWesty]

Bump. Bump.

[BigRAWesty]

Ok guys in all seriousness we need to nail this down asap..
I've rung evey park in robe, Beachport and southend this morning and all pretty much laughed..

2 have spaces..
First uo is lake side cp in robe.
Can only garentee
4 unpowered sites but powered sites has 10+.
But only from the 4th..
Prices... Hold the chair..
$48 a night for powered
$46 unpowered.
That's for 2 people.. Critters over 2 years cost $10 and $8 each site.

Needs a deposit of around $60 to hold the booking.. Cancellations after 1 month from booking loose deposit and full payment has to be made before Christmas.

Second option.
Hill view cp in southend..
Imo this one's the winner..
Can accommodate everyone, have a big open unpowered camp site area with fire ability.
Available from the 3rd
$24 a night powered
$19 unpowered
Extras, Under 2 is free, 2-24 is half price

One night deposit needed
Cancellation up to 2 weeks prior loose a $10 fee, after the 2 weeks loose deposit plus the 10..

So.. I'm for hillview, but jump on the net guys and check em out..

I cannot stress enough this has to happen soon!!!

[MudRunnerTD]

Book it Kallen.

We are going to Hillview guys. No contest.

How much are the kids Kallen? 1/2 price of what?

[BigRAWesty]

The base price get you the site and 2 people.
Kids are $3 and under 2 are free

I think to save stuffing around I'll let the cp owners know that it's the Nissan patrol crew,
And anyone who books a site using this name to be in our area.
Everyone pay their own deposits.

[AB]

Extremely keen still but only tentative booking for my family at the moment.

I normally spend that time with the olds so need to find out what the plan is near the end of the year.

[Bloodyaussie]

I am up for this trip but have one major problem..... I have the dogs and unless I can take them with me I am a no go.

Mags and Erica will be in Italy so it would be Alexander and myself.

[growler2058]

Are these still the dates??

Give Hillview a call Jonno and ask them about dogs.

Guys this will be a deposit down that is refundable kind of thing. If your even half interested then get on it. Deciding in November will be too late. I can't believe we can still get a group in this late in the game.

Sorry guys I have had Allot on, more than most know, I just had not made the calls, Kallen offered to do the ring around today for me. Happy days we can be accommodated. But we need to jump on this Now!

I'm pretty sure it was a $10 cancellation fee regardless, but you will get deposits back right up to 2 weeks before..

I'll ring tomorrow and let them know they have won lol.
I'll also set it up that anyone who rings on behalf of the Nissan patrol forum is in our group so place em close.
I'll also ask about dogs johno. But worst case there is our house (we have a begal) or there are some nice kennels around.

Wish it was Nissan though, Toyotas just can't keep up with the Pootrol pace.



The only good thing about an 80 series is..... the front end?? Wrong!!, the Engine?? Wrong!! the Full Time 4WD system?? Wrong!! Its the NissanPatrol.com.au stubby holder fitted over the transfer lever. :wink:

I'm pretty sure it was a $10 cancellation fee regardless, but you will get deposits back right up to 2 weeks before..

I'll ring tomorrow and let them know they have won lol.
I'll also set it up that anyone who rings on behalf of the Nissan patrol forum is in our group so place em close.
I'll also ask about dogs johno. But worst case there is our house (we have a begal) or there are some nice kennels around.

That's Millicent mate not Southend

[growler2058]

Ive gotta check when our shut down is. I got a bad feeling were back at work on the 5th so this could eff it for me

He did too:redface:
I should read previous posts before posting myself.

[BigRAWesty]

Unfortunately we are just gunna have to split I think.
I'm gunna make some more calls tomorrow and try cape jaffa and Kingston..

So far we have the beach side cp in robe, as noted before very expensive..

Have had another option come threw this arvo of the Beachport cp,
They have an area which can accommodate 10 split, 4 unpowered and 6 powered sites in a group.
The rest will have to scatter threw the park..

Powered is $28 an night and unpowered $24
$7 p/p extra and kids under 2 are free..
$56 deposit,
An cancellation incurs a $20 fee outside of one month, inside that last month it's deposit and fee..

Phone number 0887 358 128

Pretty sure I read dogs allowed at managements discretion to johno

[growler2058]

F@rk it! I'm out :(

Gotta be back at work on the 5th FFS

[MudRunnerTD]

Bugger Growler! Doesn't get much more local for you bud.

Beachport CP sounds like the go Kallen, anything North mate?

[growler2058]

Not happy Jan!
Will head down to Loveday for a few nights for a fix

[BigRAWesty]

Have just got off the phone to Kingston and Cape jaffa

Kingston cv park can accommodate but again a small group and rest scattered.
Try can do a group of 7 powered.

The unpowered is setup as you please.

The rest will be scattered.
Powered is $40 a night
Unpowered is $35

$13 extra per adult, above 5 years is $10 and below is free..

Deposit is one night
$30 admin fee for cancellations and not deposit refund from one month out..

Dogs welcome..

Cape jaffa is getting back to me on the powered sites.
They can accommodate the unpowered..
Will get more info when they return the call..


Now Beachport want an answer by tonight..
So we need to pick asap..

[BigRAWesty]

Case jaffa can fit us in but again split.
Can do 10 powered in a group, but across a road.
Unpowered can be in a group..
$30 powered, $28 unpowered
$8 extra but kids under 12 free (to be confirmed)
One night deposit and no refund for 1 month out..

Dog friendly..

Only down fall is were limited to the 9th..
But can book in from the 1st..

[BigRAWesty]

Kids under 12 are free!!!

[Bloodyaussie]

10 powered in a group sounds good but I have no idea???

I have only stayed in a caravan park once and did not like it much...

either way I am in if I can bring the dogs... once you work out whats going on how about a thread with all the facts as this thread is a mess and very hard to know whats going on.

[BigRAWesty]

What are you thinking ba??
What's your choice?

[Alitis007]

If i'm able to come i'll probably rent a unit if my mrs comes with me if i'm solo i'll wing it hahahaa!

[Drewboyaus]

Why don't we just camp on Westy's front lawn????

What is the plan for driving? Is it a base camp trip?
What's the go with these "extra charges" is that site + charge for 2 adults + 3 kids = nearly the price of a motel room? Surely you just pay for the site......yes?

Anyway, my tribe and I are interested but really need some surety around the accommodation side of things.

Sent from my iPhone using Forum Runner

[MudRunnerTD]

Of we can get in then it will be base camp in the same spot for the duration. The extra charges will be for your kids drew, the site charge will include 2 Adults generally.

[Drewboyaus]

So if I take one of the examples above I'd be up for $35 + $30 (3 kids) = $65 per night......
For an unpowered site I reckon that's a bit steep.....pretty annoying you pay extra for kids....

Sent from my iPhone using Forum Runner

[MudRunnerTD]

You'd reckon a site would be for a family of 4 at least wouldn't you. yes i agree at $65 a night its expensive for sure! being the busiest week of the year you will pay a premium anywhere though and you wont get a motel room for less that double that on a good day! likely triple that in the same week id reckon.

[Drewboyaus]

Might look at hiring a CT again if we're base camping it...

Sent from my iPhone using Forum Runner

[BigRAWesty]

Yea unfortunately down here being a tourist destination they sure make it worth it during the peak season...

If we hit up the cape jaffa park kids under 12 are free so I think that covers most of us.
The only thing with jaffa is we have to be out Friday..

[MudRunnerTD]

Just googled Cape Jaffa and its not too far North of Robe. Could be good mate! 200m from teh drive on beach and down to Robe. I am liking it.

[MudRunnerTD]

Case jaffa can fit us in but again split.
Can do 10 powered in a group, but across a road.
Unpowered can be in a group..
$30 powered, $28 unpowered

Dog friendly..

Only down fall is were limited to the 9th..
But can book in from the 1st..

This is sounding very good to me. it sounds like it would be 2 large groups of 10 with no scattering of singles unless there were more than 20 cars. Its just North of Robe with direct beach access and Kids under 12 are free so this soounds pretty good to me.

[Bloodyaussie]

Someone needs to make a decision a set it in concrete. ....this started in January.

[MudRunnerTD]

Book Cape Jaffa Westy. Both groups.

[Drewboyaus]

Sounds alright to me! Lock us in!

Sent from my iPhone using Forum Runner

[MudRunnerTD]

OK so the dates are changing too. Book from 1st to the 9th. this will give folks the weekend at home before they go back to work. The 1st is a Thursday and the 9th is the following friday. Nice break.

Book it in Westy and i will change the first post and advise all to make the call and get their names into the park mate.

Growler might get down for a couple of days too!

No worries. I'll get on the phone Monday and let them know.
Everyone mention the forum group..

The owner will even rope off a site for us no powered campers close to amenities..

[Bloodyaussie]

Ok here is my update.... Margherita will be flying back from Italy on the 5th so I will only be staying from the 1st to the 4th.. I may head down earlier and try and stay somewhere so its worth my while heading all that way.

I will look into what my options are with 2 Jack Russells in tow.

[MudRunnerTD]

OK I am Booked and ready to go. The lady was great and this sounds like a great place to stay.

Roll up guys get you name in and book a space.

The Powered group will be 20m from the unpowered group so that is great. There is a Camp Kitchen and other facilities for all to use.

There is Fuel and Deli supplies art the park and somewhere to wash the car after beach runs.

There is a total of 25 Powered sites for teh whole park so it wont be packed out and should be a good spot for us.

Get on it.

I could end up having a couple of Prado drivers and their family's with me for part of the time, would that be against the rules?

[BigRAWesty]

Not at all.. Need some recovery practice.
All we ask is they listen to us while out in the dunes.

Unfortunately the last group who visited with the local 4wd didn't listen and they spent the whole day recovering and a prado driver bent up his front end after launching it off a ridge..

[BigRAWesty]

So the list hasn't grown much??

[Bloodyaussie]

Most people are with family's or have there regular holiday they go on that time of year... I am only free because the wife is overseas.

[BigRAWesty]

btw liftlid is gary.

Where's the rest of the list, i thought there was at least 10 cars going. You'd think growler would show, it's his back yard:)

there was mate but we cant do both meets the boss is just going to make the leave for ausday

[MudRunnerTD]

Ok so it's looking like a few have dropped off and doing Ausday instead.

I will keep the booking open for the weekend guys then will shut it down at the caravan park then anyone that wants to come will be based on whether they can accommodate you.

We have a large booking with a small park and it's not fair commercially to book 30% of their park out and then have an empty park for New Year.

I am going to Beachport for NewYear with my family and a few friends. All welcome.

All good mate, my post was not on you at all bud, you just happen to be the last post.


Not going to flog a dead horse mate. I am going to Beachport because it's a great trip. Whether there are 5 cars or 30 will just mean there is slow trips or not so slow trips ;). There is plenty to see there and plenty of time to sit and relax on beautiful beaches without crowds where you can sit on the beach under the awning of your car parked on the beach beside you.

There is 100s of kms of beach to drive and it's a Blast! I have not done this trip for about 7 years and Can't Wait.

This is the last bump on this thread.

[Drewboyaus]

We are still looking at coming.....hinging a little bit on other circumstances though Daz. Should have a clearer picture next week.

A few beers and it's fair game I thought

[BigRAWesty]

Another bump.
Darren did you contact the park?

[liftlid]

I have a booking but now cannot go as I have to head to coffs for a wedding that weekend, if anybody needs a unpowered site let me know soon as I will need to ring park to cancel ASAP

[mudnut]

What are the dates you have booked, liftlid?

[BigRAWesty]

Bugga mate. But these things happen..

But jump on it MN. Will be a good week..
I think gary had the first half booked..

[mudnut]

I have rung the park owners and they have said there is still a few sites available from the 2nd to the 9th. I am pushing you-know-what up a steep hill, trying to get an answer fom my family. Hopefully will be able to book, this week.

[BigRAWesty]

Ne good to get ya across mate.
Plenty of fishing and things for the kids to do aswell

[liftlid]

What are the dates you have booked, liftlid?

I booked the original dates Darren ha 1st till the end

[BigRAWesty]

Yea MN we've booked from the 1st due to only being able to book untill the Friday the 9th.
But even if you get across fir the weekend.
I think G man is coming fir the weekend. I think..

[BigRAWesty]

FINAL CALL!!!

I've just had a call from sham at Cape jaffa and they can't hold sites much longer.
This is the final call. If you miss out to bad but we can't wait any longer.
I'm ringing now to open sites.
Don't leave it to late..

[BigRAWesty]

Righto guys final count down.
I guess we start planning now but I'm unsure how busy Mr is with recent personal things.

So.
Can we have a roll call.
But also include a few activities you wise to do.
There will be sand driving. Of course.
But your just over an hour from one of the best wine regions in Australia, so that's a possibility.

We can do a over nighter to the mouth if the boys want to.

Of course there will be lazy days. Fishing days etc. Were at the beach.
Any suggestions??

Any. Roll call

Westy's clan

[BigRAWesty]

Ow and..........

[TPC]

Ow and..........
Have you bought that?

Me and the misses are still going.

[BigRAWesty]

Na it's my parents that we've got it till next year so will be putting it to good use.

Just drawing up my winch bar now.
Fingers crossed I can pull it together in 4 weeks.

[BigRAWesty]

That's ok. I've got a winch now.
So old girl is cut and polished.
Just found the water tap pump is shagged. Was going to test water in the tank but it won't draw it up. Bugga.

And my dual battery solenoid is shot. Not connecting when running.
Talk about have a costly run atm

But nissa has been flat out in the kitchen.
I think we have one camp oven meal for the week. The rest are stove top meals.

Only 2 more sleeps.

I rang cp today. Petrol $1.30. Diesel available at marina but price unsure.

I am still torn to go or not??

I have not packed anything and still have to change an alternator and drain the water and fill with coolant... I have my spot booked from tomorrow onwards but no money for fuel????

I have to be back on Saturday if I did go as I need Sunday to sort the house out before Mags gets back on Monday.

I dont know......?

You need to put some ks on the new engine, don't you? This is a perfect way to do it. It's only $28 a night for two people, so it won't be much more for two kids. Go on, you know you want to :)

I did enjoy myself until 2am, hurt now though but a bit of 4wding through the dunes will fix that.

You know you want to be here buggalugs. Easier to post here than stop drinking, get out of the chair, yell across the camp. Happy Hour is a good time

[MudRunnerTD]

Some camp pics. Cape Jaffa caravan park is 50m from the jetty. Plenty of shade, grassy sites. Nice spot.
