National Parks and Reserves

Sunburnt Beach is a short stretch of coastline located just north of Termeil Point, within the rugged beauty of Meroo National Park. With its own campground positioned at the northern end of the beach, it offers visitors a rare opportunity to stay right beside the ocean, surrounded by bushland and natural coastal scenery.

Meroo National Park is known for its abundance of peaceful camping areas, and Sunburnt Beach is one of the highlights along this remote coastline. The campground provides a simple, back‑to‑nature experience that appeals to those seeking solitude and a strong connection to the landscape. Waking to the sound of waves and the calls of native birds is all part of the charm here.

The beach faces south‑east and can attract larger swells at times, making it a popular spot for surfers when conditions align. While the surf can be powerful, there are also calmer days ideal for beach walks, fishing, or simply taking in the expansive ocean views. The wild, open feel of the coastline adds to the sense of adventure and escape.

Sunburnt Beach is the perfect bush‑to‑beach camping experience, where forest meets sand and the pace of life slows down. Whether you’re pitching a tent for a few nights, chasing a good surf break, or exploring the surrounding national park, this rugged and unspoilt beach offers a memorable coastal getaway.
