Flat Rock Tent Park

If you’re after a relaxing coastal camping trip with a side of sleaze, then Flat Rock Tent Park in Ballina is the place for you. Otherwise — RUN. The facilities were fine (if you like sharing showers with spiders), but the real issue here is Brent, the park manager. Instead of managing the park, he seems to think his job is to manage inappropriate sexual comments and creepy stares. My friend and I were just trying to enjoy our holiday, but Brent made the entire experience deeply uncomfortable with remarks that were gross, unwelcome, and flat-out disgusting. We came for ocean views and peaceful vibes. We got sleazy innuendos and the kind of awkward encounters you normally need therapy for. If you’re a solo female traveler or with girlfriends — stay away. Save your money, your sanity, and your dignity. There are plenty of other beautiful, non-predatory places to camp around Ballina.

Stayed here for only 2 nights, it is great for camping trips with family. The place is very clean and the amenities are great as well and there are several firepits as well Toilets and showers in good condition and you can easily walk to the beach. Lots of birds for birdwatching as well. It might get busy during holidays.

Stunning location right next to Flat Rock Beach and a beautiful walking trail, well maintained amenities and incredibly kind and generous staff 💛

Great location to camp, 50metre walk from the beach with access from the camp site. Spacious sites and clean facilities. Staff were kind, no complaints here.

What a nice campsite. I visited in May so it was nice and quiet, it is next to a beautiful beach, and it is run by the world's biggest chiller!

Number 10 for all things every relaxed lay back very friendly they're not inconspicuous soil they don't get when they see strangers walking around or anything like that I prefer them to anybody for an easy happy and fairly cheap stay

Beautiful place, serene and full of birds and bush turkeys. Amenities are clean and campsites are very nice.

Natural unpowered sites, feels like real camping. But the amenities are great. Proper barista coffee and more at reception. Brent and the team were great to deal with. Will be back soon!

The views from the look out to the beach are so perfect. You can hear the roar of the ocean from the tent park. Flat rock also has great facilities which are kept clean and tidy. They are also serviced twice a day. If you're looking for a cheap get away it's about $30 for two people per day and $10 per person after that. An excellent park with a big family feel to it where campers help each other out and are extremely friendly.
