Fortescue Bay Campgrounds
Banksia Campground and Mills Creek Campground are campgrounds at Fortescue Bay in Tasman National Park, managed by the Parks and Wildlife Service Tasmania.
The campgrounds are popular year-round. This is a beautiful place to reconnect with nature. Here the towering forest meets the sea, wildlife abounds, and your biggest care will be choosing what to do. Swim, snorkel, scuba dive, kayak, fish, rock climb, bushwalk, bird-watch … or just lie on the wide, white sandy beach where the clouds drift overhead and the waves endlessly tumble to shore.
At Banksia Campground, you can pitch your tent beneath towering stringybarks, with the beach a few footsteps away. Showers are available at this site and require a token to be purchased from the campground site office. Mills Creek Campground has larger sites, suitable for those with boats and/or campervans and motorhomes.
Bookings are recommended from November until April each year. Camping fees apply. Total site number and capacity are estimates only. To learn more about this campground, including a breakdown of camping fees and bookings, please follow the link. Refer to the ‘Know before you go’ webpage on the Parks and Wildlife Service Tasmania website (parks.tas.gov.au) and take a moment to look over our essential information for visiting Tasmania’s national parks and reserves, including information about alerts, safety and national park entry fees where applicable.
