Bamaga Camps
Bamaga camps are all
outside the town.
Bamaga is the largest community in the Northern Peninsula Area, and in the town itself there is no camping.
But there are a few places outisde the town that are not too far.
They are all very nice places next to the ocean with good views and nice camping spots.
Bamaga Camps - Umagico
The closest one to Bamaga is the camping ground on the beach in the Aboriginal community of Umagico. It has been here for a while but lately it has got new managers that are very keen and have made the camping grounds even nicer. They also manage the close-by Lodge.
Bamaga Camps - Loyalty Beach
The second closest one is the camping ground at Loyalty Beach, which is reached by turning off the main road after New Mapoon. It is a nice camping ground with red soils and blue waters, and there is also a Fishing Lodge and a beach restaurant.
Seisia
The next community after Loyalty Beach turnoff is Seisia, and there is a nice camping ground on the beach. What's great here are the so-called 'Beach Huts' - which really just have roofs and a kitchen sink inside, but they do make powered camping sites so much nicer.
Punsand Bay
Punsand Bay is a bit farther away, near the Tip of Australia. It is a resort with a licensed bar and a restaurant, and there are expensive rooms as well as cheap camping spots. This is the only place where you can camp and have a swimming pool! The other place with a pool - Bamaga Resort - has no camping.
