Peoples Caravan Park - Coral Bay

While travelling down the coast of Western Australian with our caravan we decided to call into Coral Bay for a few days. This is a truly beautiful spot on the Ningaloo Reef - fantastic for snorkeling off the beach.

Peoples Park Coral Bay was our choice of caravan parks in this small village which was a perfect place for a relaxing holiday. I think we planned to stay for two nights and ended up staying for the week. We were very pleased to learn that the Peoples Park has desalinated water for showers and laundry facilities throughout the park.

The water on the sites is artesian bore water which is undrinkable, but fine to wash in. We had filled our tanks with desalinated water at the Exmouth Visitor Information Centre and chose not to hook the bore water to the van. There are clearly marked drinking taps located at both ablution blocks and at the campers kitchen to fill up water bottles.This park is slightly more expensive than the other caravan park in town but we decided that desalinated showers were worth the money.

Peoples Park is a large park with a number of great facilities:

• three new barbeque areas with dish washing facilities  
• large campers kitchen with fridge, microwave, hotplates, large undercover seating area and barbeques - fresh water tap
• two ablution blocks - baby bath and laundry facilities 
• ocean front sites only metres from the beach - for Caravans, Campervans and Motor Homes only
• powered and un-powered sites
• range of cabins and villas with desalinated water - self contained
• dump point

At the entrance of Peoples Park, is the Peoples Shopping village where you will find:

• grocery & souvenir store
