Fitzgerald bay camping

Fitzgerald Bay Camping, also known locally as Fitzgerald Bay Shingles Beach, is a dog-friendly caravan park and campground on Spencer Gulf near Whyalla, offering both standard campsites and fenced sites for pets.

The pet policy. Dogs are allowed to stay overnight as long as they are well-behaved. Fenced sites are available if you want a contained space for your dog to be off lead safely, alongside standard unfenced sites. Whether dogs are permitted inside any on-site cabins is not clearly stated, so check this directly with the park before booking a cabin rather than a campsite. Specific size limits and fees are not listed in the source material either, so confirm both at booking.

The place. As a caravan park and campground rather than a hotel, expect campsite-style facilities. The choice between a standard site and a fenced site is worth making at booking time if having a secure off-lead space matters for your dog.

Location and nearby. The park sits on the shingle beach at Fitzgerald Bay, with the water close for a swim. Whyalla township, a short drive north, has dog-friendly cafes and a fenced dog park for a change of scenery.

Ask for a fenced site if your dog needs the space, and confirm cabin rules and fees ahead of time. Good for campers wanting a beachfront base with more pet flexibility than a standard park.
