About Ocean Beach Camping Area (Site O)
Ocean Beach Camping Area (Site O) offers a remote outdoor experience situated along the coastline of Diamond Head. This site consists of defined camping plots located behind the primary dunes, providing protection from coastal winds while maintaining proximity to the water. Access requires a high-clearance four-wheel drive vehicle and a pre-booked vehicle access permit. Facilities at this specific site are minimal, requiring visitors to be fully self-sufficient with their own water, food, and portable toilets to protect the local ecosystem.
Visitors to this part of the Sunshine Coast region often use the site as a base for exploring the diverse landscapes of Bribie Island National Park. The camping area is located north of the Fort Bribie day-use area, which serves as a significant historical landmark for those interested in World War II coastal defence ruins. Recreational activities include beach fishing, swimming in unprotected waters, and observing local wildlife such as goannas and shorebirds. Proper waste management and adherence to park regulations ensure the preservation of this coastal environment for future users.
