HAT HEAD NSW


  I called in to Hat Head near South West Rocks NSW to visit my Uncle who was staying there  for a couple of months in the only Caravan Park. He is incredible, 84 years old and still travelling in his Van for months at a time, looks 65 and is as mentally fit as I have ever seen him. This is his winter hibernation spot every year. Not much at Hat Head except for a magnificent beach with a shore line that must be 15 or more kms long. 4x4 driving on the beach is allowed and the fishing is great. At this time of the year it is almost deserted so a good stopover if you want somewhere quiet and restful. The Bowling Club right at the Caravan park entrance has great meals on weekends. There are some Free Camps nearby and I  investigated some. The roads to them are rough and out of the question in the wet for the Hiace, you may want to take a look, they are listed in Camps6.
  The Caravan Park is pretty big and popular so be prepared to go where you are put. Amenities are fresh, clean and modern and there is the usually coin operated laundry and drop point if you need it. Worth a look for sure.

The Local Aboriginals say that the Headland is the home of the spirit of a Pregnant Woman
