How we Save Money Camping | East Coast NSW

Welcome back!
We are continuing up the Northern NSW coastline, checking out some awesome beaches in our Next gen Ford Ranger and our Caravan. Give some of our budget tips while travelling full time around Australia. We also find some cool low cost showground camps near Yamba, Ballina and Byron Bay.
The tiktok trend Big Mac tacos was a massive hit and quickly becoming a staple as it's so easy to whip up. Bryce installs a water pump on the tray of the Norweld Canopy.

Great video as always Chelsea and Bryce. Lots more of Juice he’s so cute. Very impressive Bryce your water pump hook up that you did. Take care guys x

[@CaravanAdventureAus]

Thanks so much 🐶

[@colinl9018]

Some of these caravan pks think they are running The Ritz Hotel with their over the top charges! I will by-pass a whole town if the accomodation is a rip off A lot of these joints haven't had a reno/update since the 80's as well. "i'll get back to fixing it later".......Come on Bryce, stop at the next Bunnings you see and get the gear and fix it asap...😂😂 BTW, Bundaberg Qld, have a beer at the club hotel for me, my old stomping ground. 👍

[@CaravanAdventureAus]

That is very true! Good idea hopefully it will make them rethink what they're doing. When I need to go to reece next I'll get some 😂

[@wendysilcock6978]

A great place to stop and camp is Sublime Brewery at Kia Ora just off the road to Tin Can Bay. Live music from Friday night til Sunday afternoon and dogs welcome even in the pub. $15 a night off grid. Absolutely fabulous place to stop.

[@CaravanAdventureAus]

Wow that sounds awesome! We might check that out 👍🏽👍🏽

[@lynelleanddennismcinnes8867]

Great video. Glad you enjoyed the beaches and area of Northern NSW especially staying at Showground Alstonville, I live 5 minutes from Alstonville and always see lots of caravans in the Showground. The Northern Rivers area has a lot to offer travellers.

[@CaravanAdventureAus]

Thanks so much for watching! You live in an awesome area

[@billlowe4251]

As usual great video, you do know, Juice will eventually take over, like our Cavoodle Millie, she rules the trips now. Hey Chelsea, I thought I was the only one who did the chip butty thing, coming from Liverpool UK. love the videos, so down to earth.

[@CaravanAdventureAus]

Thanks for watching! Yeah love a good chip buddy 👍🏽

[@kimstone3060]

Lookin good Looks like nicer weather than Tassie.😊 But i wear shorts all year round, so i'd probably be melting up there😂🤣😂🤣

[@CaravanAdventureAus]

Hahaha thanks for watching 👍🏽😂

[@peterbest2434]

Sunshine Coast hinterland is great with day trips to the coast. Kenilworth show grounds with Eumundi markets & Noosa an easy drive away. Don’t forget the Kenilworth Bakery with 1kg donut challenge & the 1kg sausage roll. Can see you guy having a go at this

[@CaravanAdventureAus]

It is a great area so far! Would love to have a go at the sausage roll 😂 thanks for watching 👍🏽

[@triciarobertson2451]

Juice (jus) is so cute, doing so well with his training.....just a heads up he should only walk on one side of you when on the lead....he'll have no trouble learning that as he seems very clever......🐕

[@CaravanAdventureAus]

Thats a great tip will have to start implementing that! Cheers for watching 🍻

[@whitedog7897]

Hi guys another great video. With regards to your Blackjack unit what model is yours? Are you happy with it? 😀

[@CaravanAdventureAus]

Hey thanks for watching 👍🏽 thought there was only one model, seen there is a couple different kits. I had the wiring to wire it up so didn't need that in my kit 👍🏽 hope that's helpful

[@jasmineward5039]

How’s juice going in the car? We have to get medication from the vet for our toy cavoodle he gets car sick :( Can’t wait to see all juices adventures 👌🏼

[@CaravanAdventureAus]

He’s actually loving the car now and just using it to catch up on sleep 🐶🐶

[@lonepineX]

when you are up on Sunshine Coast can offer you free camp spot in Hinterland, near Caloundra/Maleny. Great to explore the area. Let us know!

[@CaravanAdventureAus]

Hey awesome we are around that area at the moment, such a great spot 👍🏽

[@jayfargo4086]

Great video really enjoying your content absolutely love Juice ❤

[@CaravanAdventureAus]

Thanks so much! 🐶

[@beersintheshed.]

We love travelling with our little dog, he is 4 years old now and goes everywhere with us. Being a 45kg German Shepherd we don’t carry him lol.

[@CaravanAdventureAus]

Thats awesome! You could always get one of the backpack dog carriers 🤣

[@keithbarber9004]

Great video, but really, I've never ever bought to many chips and had to save them for later 😮

[@CaravanAdventureAus]

Thanks Keith for watching! Our eyes are bigger than our belly’s always haha

[@markhopkins9925]

Thanks Guys ,as always enjoyed the video . Interested to watch the pup grow as you travel around.Bryce nothing worse than being 4" short on the plumbing !! 🤣Keep em coming !👍👍🍻🍻

[@CaravanAdventureAus]

Thanks for watching Mark 🤪👍🏽

[@ashleybuck5374]

Hey guys, Love watching your videos, sooo much better even more with a cute puppy on board❤🤗 Being on the road just over 4 weeks, and we have cooked everyday! Only one day we had lunch of chicken wings and chips and a pint each. Not new to us as I’m a cook and eat at home girl. Heading to Victoria EOM first time leaving WA. For a 2 year window on the road, no not videoing anything, lazy really😅.... We will also be getting a pup down the line, so I can’t wait. BTW I did make the taco burgers and they were fantastic, we also have a roadstar. It’s our second van. Who knows we might see you out there one day.... Take care ❤❤🐶❤

[@CaravanAdventureAus]

Thanks for watching! Thats exciting safe travels on the road, cooking is the way to go! How good are the tacos! See you on the road! 👍🏽

[@lorrainewood2405]

Great video 😊 Going to make Burger Tacos tomorrow night. 👍

[@CaravanAdventureAus]

You won’t regret it 🤤🤤🤤

[@sharonlee782]

How are you finding places to stay now with a dog as opposed to not having a dog. is it as easy or a little harder to find pet friendly places

[@CaravanAdventureAus]

Hey at the moment it isn’t too much of an issue or inconvenience. We are really trying to avoid caravan parks and go towards hipcamps which are generally dog friendly 👍🏽

[@andrewbrown5563]

How much solar do you have on your roof and how much battery storage do you have?

[@CaravanAdventureAus]

We have 1x 250watt solar panel and 1x 130ah Lithium battery 👍

[@AngelMedina-yb4pu]

Interested in your water pump set up. How many l/min is your pump rated?

[@CaravanAdventureAus]

It's a shurflo 11 lpm pump 👍🏽 ill have to test it some time to find out exactly

[@roosadventures]

Hey Guys We are glad you loved Shark Bay Peron National Park. We took a boat to Bottle Bay and we go bogged and Maxtracks saved us as well. We also lost our boat motor on the rough track as well. Lucky we found it haha. It’s our favourite place of WA for sure and we can wait to so your next adventure in the Shark Bay World Heritage Area!

[@robperano7708]

Chips redone in airfryer-better than fresh

[@CaravanAdventureAus]

🙌🏼

[@jimlofts5433]

Alstonville hmm did you get to try the Lismore Southside Bakery mince poie ?

[@CaravanAdventureAus]

Thanks for watching! No we didn’t try that one

[@sharonprice7301]

One of our favorite campsites was called Darlington camp ground huge area and platypus have been seen one of our favourites Beaudesert is the nearest town

[@suekeane]

Gotta love some puppy spam 🐶

[@CaravanAdventureAus]

🐶🐶

[@lindaarmiger217]

Great video. Lots more of Juice as he grows please! Kenilworth Show Grounds are great. So are the Rathdowny Show Grounds. Bigriggen Bush Camp between Rathdowny and Boonah is a wonderful spot. Esk Holiday Park is great and not overly expensive. All are dog friendly. We are currently treating ourselves at the Ingenia Rivershore near Maroochydore. Bit pricey! They do have uncovered, unwatered sites but not sure of cost. These are pla es we have been to and liked. Definitely NOT sponsored by any of them. Have a great time in Qld😊

[@CaravanAdventureAus]

Thanks so much for all the recommendations we really appreciate it. We got quoted $104 a night for the Ingenia Rivershore 😱 Looks beautiful though

[@lindaarmiger217]

@CaravanAdventureAus Ingenia have a Stay 4 nights pay for 3 deal which is what we are doing. It is still pricey though, and it is a beautiful spot!

[@sindygirl7]

What sort of meat did you use in the Tacos,please . They look yummy

[@CaravanAdventureAus]

We used pork mince but you can use any mince 👍🏽

[@sindygirl7]

I wonder if some nice pate would work ?

[@kevincashmore4655]

Love dogs so put him on as much as you want. He is so adorable

[@CaravanAdventureAus]

Haha thanks so much 🐶🐶

[@kevincashmore4655]

Brice have you thought of filling your caravan water tank through the drain. Have done it with ours and believe me it so much easier and faster

[@Noeline999]

Puppy spam is good 😊

[@CaravanAdventureAus]

🐶🐶

Hey Guys, Just tripped across your Channel and thoroughly enjoyed it, So you have a new Subscriber now, BTW, Bleach and I don't get along either.

[@CaravanAdventureAus]

Thanks mate for subscribing!

[@extremeacc101]

Another excellent video guys. Great content👍 Thanks for keeping it real 😊

[@CaravanAdventureAus]

Thanks heaps! 👌🏾👍🏽

[@robinhoward4204]

If your puppy is okay to be in a dog friendly park - two I can highly recommend. Cobb & Co Nine Mile at Tandur (off the Bruce Highway before Gympie) and Imbil camping retreat. The Imbil one has a lovely creek that runs through town and has resident platypus. Also if you like a good vanilla slice the bakery has the best according to hubby. Imbil is a pretty place to walk around also.

[@CaravanAdventureAus]

Thanks so much for them recommendations. Really appreciate it 👍🏽👍🏽

[@werdna36]

When near Mackay on Qld.I can recommend Seaforth Camping Reserve.

[@CaravanAdventureAus]

Yes we’ve been here. How good is it 👌🏾

[@ladysusanjane2682]

🌮definitely going to try those burger taco things! They looked yum 😋 Oh and keep up the gratuitous puppy shots! 🐶
