Sarawak West
Sarawak West
Sarawak West is an open, unfenced camping area at the far end of Inskip Peninsula Recreation Area, roughly 13 kilometres from Rainbow Beach in Queensland.
Situated behind the foredunes, it has no formally defined sites and accommodates tents beside vehicles, off-road camper trailers, campervans, and caravans, though space for larger rigs is limited. The ground surface is sand throughout.
Coastal trees provide dappled shade across most of the area. Sites closer to the water offer views across the ocean toward K'gari (Fraser Island), while more sheltered inland sites block the sun and prevailing sea winds. The beach is a short walk away.
A booking permit is required, and the maximum stay is 30 days. Most sites require a 4WD to reach, though some may be accessible by 2WD in dry conditions; there is no vehicle access directly onto the beach.
The area is popular with larger groups and serves as a convenient base for fishing, boating, and preparing for trips to K'gari.
