This guide covers the best caravan parks in Busselton based on feedback from Camplify's community of owners and hirers who've travelled these 8 parks extensively.

Busselton sits on Western Australia's southwest coast, roughly 220km south of Perth. The town's iconic jetty stretches 1.8km into Geographe Bay — it's the longest timber-piled jetty in the southern hemisphere and the signature attraction here. Camplify trip data shows that travellers heading to Busselton stay an average of 8.8 days, often combining it with nearby Margaret River, Dunsborough, and Yallingup as part of the classic southwest loop.

Many visitors get their van delivered directly to their chosen park rather than towing from Perth. Demand peaks hard over Christmas and New Year, with powered and unpowered sites booking out months ahead. January school holidays see crowds at both parks and beaches, while April can bring strong southerly gusts. Spring accounts for 32% of trips to this region.

Caravan parks near Busselton jetty and foreshore

RAC Busselton Holiday Park

RAC Busselton Holiday Park is the most popular park in Busselton among Camplify travellers, and it's easy to see why. Located right on Geographe Bay, this park puts you 500 metres from the jetty and walking distance from the town centre. The foreshore location means uninterrupted water views from many sites, and the beach access is direct.

Facilities include a heated pool, jumping pillow, games room, and well-maintained amenities blocks. Powered sites are spacious, with both concrete slabs and grassed areas available. The camp kitchen gets busy during peak periods, but it's equipped with multiple cooking stations, fridges, and covered outdoor seating. Camplify owners who know this area consistently recommend RAC Busselton for families — the jumping pillow and pool combo keeps kids occupied while parents enjoy the bay views. Hirers rate it highly for cleanliness and site spacing.

This park is the top choice for anyone attending Ironman or Ultra Marathon events in Busselton, which drive significant campervan bookings each year. Book well ahead for these periods. The park also attracts grey nomads during shoulder seasons who appreciate the proximity to town services and medical facilities.

Quick facts:

  • Distance: 500m from Busselton jetty, 220km from Perth

  • Best for: Families, events, beachfront stays

  • Key facilities: Heated pool, jumping pillow, powered sites, camp kitchen, pet-friendly area, dump point

  • Book ahead: Christmas to mid-January, Ironman weekend, Ultra Marathon

Camp Grace

Camp Grace operates as a budget-friendly alternative to the larger resort parks. This smaller caravan park sits about 3km from the jetty on Caves Road, offering basic powered and unpowered sites without the frills. The appeal here is simplicity and price — you get a flat, grassed site with power, clean amenities, and not much else.

Camplify travellers who've stayed here mention the peaceful atmosphere and the fact that it rarely fills to capacity, even during school holidays. The trade-off is minimal facilities: no pool, no playground, no camp kitchen. You're essentially paying for a powered site and amenities access. That said, the amenities are clean and well-maintained, which matters more than fancy extras for many travellers.

This park works well for self-sufficient grey nomads or couples who want a quiet base for exploring Busselton and the Margaret River region without the noise of family-oriented parks. It's also a solid choice if the main parks are fully booked.

Quick facts:

  • Distance: 3km from Busselton jetty, 223km from Perth

  • Best for: Budget-conscious travellers, quiet stays, last-minute bookings

  • Key facilities: Powered and unpowered sites, clean amenities, dump point

  • Book ahead: Generally available, even peak periods

Camping in Busselton: resort-style parks

Mandalay Holiday Resort

Mandalay Holiday Resort rivals RAC Busselton as a community favourite. Located on Bussell Highway about 2km from the jetty, this park leans heavily into the resort experience. The pool complex includes a heated main pool, spa, and kids' splash area. There's a games room, playground, jumping pillow, and a recreation hall for rainy days.

Powered sites are generous in size, and the park offers both ensuite and standard options. The ensuite sites include private bathroom facilities attached to your site, which appeals to travellers who value convenience over camp kitchen socialising. Based on feedback from Camplify's community of owners and hirers, Mandalay scores highly for families with younger kids — the pool and playground setup keeps children entertained without leaving the park.

The park's location on Bussell Highway means you're a short drive from both the jetty and the start of the Caves Road wine region. Many travellers use Mandalay as a base for day trips to Margaret River wineries, Canal Rocks, and Injidup Natural Spa. Hirers consistently mention the park's cleanliness and the helpfulness of on-site staff.

Quick facts:

  • Distance: 2km from Busselton jetty, 222km from Perth

  • Best for: Families, couples, resort amenities

  • Key facilities: Heated pool and spa, jumping pillow, ensuite sites, camp kitchen, pet-friendly area, dump point

  • Book ahead: Christmas to Australia Day, Easter, spring school holidays

Busselton Holiday Park

Busselton Holiday Park sits inland on Caves Road, about 4km from the jetty. This park targets families with a focus on kid-friendly facilities: jumping pillow, playground, games room, and a large grassed area for kicking a footy. The pool is smaller than RAC or Mandalay but adequate for cooling off after a beach day.

Powered sites are well-shaded by mature trees, which makes a difference during summer. The camp kitchen is basic but functional, with enough space for multiple families. Camplify travellers who've stayed here rate it as good value — not the most polished park, but clean, safe, and convenient. The trade-off for the inland location is a quieter atmosphere and lower prices than the beachfront parks.

This park works well for families on a budget or travellers who don't mind a short drive to the beach. It's also popular with groups of friends travelling together, as the layout allows multiple vans to book neighbouring sites easily.

Quick facts:

  • Distance: 4km from Busselton jetty, 224km from Perth

  • Best for: Budget families, groups, shaded sites

  • Key facilities: Pool, jumping pillow, powered sites, camp kitchen, dump point

  • Book ahead: January school holidays, long weekends

Anglican Campsite

Anglican Campsite functions as the most basic option in Busselton. This campsite sits about 5km from the jetty on Caves Road, offering unpowered and limited powered sites in a bush setting. Facilities are minimal: clean amenities blocks, a basic camp kitchen, and not much else. There's no pool, no playground, no jumping pillow.

The appeal here is price and availability. When the main parks are fully booked, Anglican Campsite usually has space. Camplify travellers who've stayed here describe it as functional and quiet — a place to sleep between day trips rather than a destination in itself. The bush setting provides privacy and shade, which some travellers prefer over the communal feel of larger parks.

This campsite works best for self-sufficient travellers who value price and availability over facilities. It's also a good option for last-minute bookings during peak periods when everything else is full. For pet owners, this campsite allows dogs in certain areas, though facilities for pets are basic.
