Barwon Heads Caravan Park

If camping is more your style the Barwon Heads Caravan Park is your place. You can bring your caravan, camper van or tent, or even rent a cabin if comfortability is key to your camping adventure. It’s only a couple of minutes’ walk to the beachfront or up the bluff from anywhere in the caravan park. You can choose powered or unpowered sites depending on just how into nature you and your buddies want to experience.

It’s the perfect place to catch the sunrise and be soothed to sleep by the sound of the waves. The caravan park is the ideal place if you really want to make the most out of your coastal retreat, it’s also great if you’re travelling in a group or with a bunch of kids in tow.

Ceres Coastal

For a sophisticated and stylish home away from home, Ceres Coastal is a must.

Set in the heart of beautiful Barwon Heads amidst the main shopping village that comprises boutiques, cafes, bars and restaurants on Hitchcock Avenue, Ceres Coastal is a spacious, modern yet classical two bedroom, two bathroom apartment with a double garage.
