About Ben Ewa Camping Area

Ben Ewa camping area is situated on the western side of Gheebulum Kunungai (Moreton Island) National Park near Cape Moreton.

The campground provides basic facilities including composting toilets and cold showers, though visitors must bring their own treated water and rubbish bags.
