Sandy Cape, Jurien Bay | Beachside Off-Grid Camping with a Camper Trailer

This is one of our favourite local(ish) beachside camps, Sandy Cape, Jurien Bay. Just a few hours north of Perth, Western Australia.
This trip we explore the Sandy Cape Recreation area, Stockyard Gully Cave, Lake Indoon Free Camp and the Pearson 4wd track. We also have a few chance encounters with the local wildlife.
You'll see how we're setup, and a bit of camp cooking.

Great video Cam, can't wait to see more.

[@WesternAustraliaNowAndThen]

Used to love going up there but since the campsite upgrade it has got just a bit too busy. Nice clip. Great to see the dolphins in so close. Lake Indoon's water level sure goes up and down. We were there in May and it was a dry as a bone. If you camp at Indoon always check yourself for ticks.

[@WildTouring]

Yeah got to agree with you. Been coming for a long time but the last few years has been really busy. We don't bother going up on school holidays, weekends or long weekends anymore. Cheers for watching!

[@joshuasheinberg6049]

Nicely done guys. Beautiful camping for a wonderful fam! Good job!

[@dreamerseas5973]

Great vid, love your setup!

[@jobler3357]

Just watched a heap of Wild Touring videos while laid up with a bung shoulder. Nice to see what our kids are up to. (The old Grey nomads.)

[@crack-a-tinny4x471]

This was COOL Mate... this spot is on the bucket list for sure.... Well done on taking Chloe camping at such a young age... Its the best thing for her in this day and age 👏👍😎

[@mountainconstructions]

Nice video mate Great set up, looks fantastic. Thank you for making the content and sharing

[@WildTouring]

Cheers Hugh, my pleasure mate, thank you for watching!

[@terrytowns764]

What a magic spot. Have alway driven past on the way to Sharks/Coral Bay. Might need to pay the place a visit. Love the shower set up, need something similar on my 100 series. Keep up the good work!!

[@WildTouring]

Its a great spot, but it is close to Perth so it can be very busy on weekends! If you havnt already, also worth checking out the 'Little Bay' campsite in Horrocks if you're heading that way up the coast, beautiful bit of coast.

[@Mr_Mumble_PSN]

absolutly perfect. love the row row boat lmao

[@leepenehoe673]

Awesome camp spot mate, Westen Australia is on the to do list for camping that's for sure.

[@joshwalker8743]

[@WildTouring]

Thanks Josh, appreciate the kind words!

[@panibe00]

[@WildTouring]

Thats the go, Cheers Eric!

[@dbulmer70]

Another great video Cam 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@beeragonewhere2819]

Hey dave Mark Bulmer w.a here its a rare name we have and you love camping like me, Mmmmm You my brother lol

[@dbulmer70]

Hey Mark, it certainly is a rare surname and we may well be brothers or at least distant relatives

[@DonsShed]

great stuff Cam :) I'm yet to get to Sandy Cape, so this video gives me some inspiration to get there!!! :) Cheers, Don (Dons Shed and Xplor Overland)

[@WildTouring]

Cheers Don. Get out there and have a look mate. It's a ripper spot. Can get busy on weekends though!

[@michaelneale2851]

Good to see your still wearing your 105 jumper mate, i wear mine all the time haha great video as always

[@WildTouring]

It's my go to camping jumper eh haha. Cheers mate!

[@PhantasticAdventures]

awesome video mate! keep up the work!

[@WildTouring]

Cheers Andrew. Thanks for the support mate!

[@wilstjames3111]

NICE ONE!!!

[@RancidLimes89]

I subscribed the second I saw you measure sugar with a fork!

[@SUVTouring]

awesome !

[@westozadventure141]

Love it mate, awesome camp setup. How good is Sandy Cape, can't wait to get back up that way

[@WildTouring]

Thanks mate! Yeah it's a ripper spot!

[@antem77]

Awesome 😉

[@keirantroutman6124]

I hit this track with a land cruiser it was a breeze some tiff sections but got throw did not even let tires down the rock were a bit hard as well

[@greasemonkey9329]

Top Video as usual mate. Yeah, I live on the East Coast, but carried out some civil work at the bombing range just Nth of Lancelin. You certainly never get sick of the beautiful blue water and white sand and of coarse the fresh crays. ( top shelf) Hows the camper going , are you happy with it? Love ya work guys!

[@WildTouring]

Thanks mate! You're spot on, never get sick of the west coast beaches. They really are world class. Only downside is everything's a bloody long drive! The camper is going great, I was pretty nervous about buying a Chinese import. But it's really exceeded my expectations, the guys at track star have obviously learnt from others mistakes and improved on previous design. I'm confident taking it around aus on any track the car is capable of!

[@iplayu76]

Just swapped my ss for a 08 Triton and me and the wife are looking forward to getting outdoors more. Thanks for the vid bro will quite possibly be our first trip in the truck

[@hutchinsonsadventures4678]

loved it! new to 4 wheel driving in Australia, we have come over from the UK to live. a couple of questions being a novice, we live in perth and have a pajero and would love to do our first camping trip to sandy Cape. will i have to air down to get in? and do you think its a cracking place to do our first camping trip here? We are no strangers to camping :) cheers..Kev

[@barbaradeluca179]

I loved your video! :)Can you advise what was the camp you ended up at by chance, North Head?

[@campally]

Classic limp 🍪🙌🏻

[@WildTouring]

Haha good pick up 😂

[@rkmckenna]

Looks awesome. We have an Omaroo3 also! Do you know what it's like when there is a strong southerly blowing? I was planning to head south out Warpole way but the wind is picking up from Wednesday onwards, so change of plan. Sandy Cape is looking a little better, getting better towards next weekend by the looks.

[@WildTouring]

Probably pretty windy still! Some of the designated bays back from the beach might be a bit more protected than the beach front.

[@half-heartedadventures1500]

Great video. I love the WA coast - your drone footage is excellent. Did you have any issues towing the camper along the tracks to get to your camping spot?

[@WildTouring]

Nah no dramas at all. My only concern would be driving down a track or into a Camp site that isn't big enough to turn around in. But I'll either walk an unknown track first or Tiff will have a look at satellite maps as we're driving

[@scottparker78]

Can you advise what was the camp you ended up at by chance, North Head?

[@Krazy7mx]

Hey mate amazing channel love it. Hey the min 14:50 mark...is that the free side of camping? I wanna scout out Sandy dont mind paying but interested in the other side.

[@WildTouring]

Cheers mate. Yeah it's south of the official campsite, along the tracks heading back towards Jurien.

[@petersimpson6110]

[@BugbugAdventures]

I was at that lake a year ago mate and it was dry as a bone!

[@WildTouring]

So I've heard! Must be all the rain we've had this year, got to be a good thing!

[@joeking22]

3:05 Coles sells those oil sprayers. Different brand but same thing.

[@WildTouring]

Cheers Joe. Good to know! Bit cheaper than the one I bought too.

[@expedition4x455]

Nice trip up there!! Just wondering if you have had issues with ticks up there? We were hammered by them last time we went ... also how old was your baby when you started to take her off roading ?

[@WildTouring]

I havnt had issues with ticks in sandy cape. But im pretty careful nowadays, especially if im milling around in the bush looking for somewhere to go to the toilet. Little buggers hang on to the ends of the bushes waiting for you to brush past. We started taking our daughter camping when she was 10 weeks old - hasnt always been easy (and sometimes not even enjoyable), but they adapt pretty quick, and she loves it! We do still struggle to keep her entertained on long drives though.

[@aaronedmondson8947]

Hi Mate, Love the video! Just wondering where do you get that cot wall @ 1:44?

[@WildTouring]

Thanks mate, that one was from ebay. Just search 'baby bed rail'. I'm using a more compact one now from kmart; www.kmart.com.au/product/folding-bed-rail/1403801

[@anthonyhaines6726]

Hi mate, great channel! Wondering if you could share the spot where you set up camp?

[@WildTouring]

It's not listed, just head south along the coastal 4x4 tracks south of the sandy cape camp area. There's heaps of nice Camp sites along there.

[@dbulmer70]

Hey Cam, I know this is a old video but do you think you could get a 21 ft caravan to that spot?

[@dad4x4adventures8]

Haha you seen a Kangaroo donga!! What was the traffic like camping on the main track there?

[@WildTouring]

Hahaha. No one passed us the first day. Couple of cars the second day. Most of the traffic was driving along the track behind the dunes.

[@R2DTUBE1]

Hey Cam, just thought i'd let you know that alot of your video's are missing from your video's page. You might be missing out on views and possibly new subscribers who aren't seeing alot of video's on your channel and may think not worth subscribing. I know i was trying to find a few of your older video's myself but couldn't see them on your video's page and had to go through your home page to find them. PS. Looking forward to a rig rundown on the dmax, have seen you mention this in a few comments. Don't wait until it's "ready" as it would be good to see it go through it's stages. Cheers.

[@WildTouring]

Thanks for letting me know. I'll have to look into that! I'm starting to get stuff together for the rig rundown, it's coming!

[@R2DTUBE1]

​@@WildTouring​ Dmax is on the cards for me so looking forward to it! Great setup up with the canopy anyway. Keep them coming!

[@Davi.b]

🔥 tip. Open palm slap the water knee deep, the dolphins will come right up to you, providing no movement behind you,
