Inskip Point Campground

Inskip Point Campground sits at the tip of a narrow sandy peninsula just north of Rainbow Beach in southeastern Queensland, roughly three hours from Brisbane.

Located within Great Sandy National Park, it serves as a popular base camp and launch point for Fraser Island (K'gari) barge transfers.

The recreation area encompasses five camping zones shaded by beach she-oaks, cypress pines, and other coastal scrub, with sites ranging from open ocean beaches to sheltered estuary shores along Tin Can Bay and Great Sandy Strait.

The terrain is sandy throughout, and 4WD vehicles are required to access most areas. Dogs are permitted on leash. Swimming is generally not recommended due to unpatrolled waters.

Camping permits are required and must be booked in advance, with fees applying per person or per family per night. The campground fills quickly during school holidays, long weekends, and peak periods such as Christmas and Easter.

A maximum stay limit applies over any rolling 60-day period.
