Saturday 12th May
J and I went camping at The Basin campground in Pittwater on Saturday night. It's the perfect place for a quick getaway. Only about an hour from the CBD, and accessible by Palm Beach Ferry or a 2.85km walk, which is long enough trek to deter carboot campers. Add a steep slope leading to the campsite and it means that its not likely to be overrun with campers. But with drinking water available, and a toilet and shower block (ok, so cold showers only), it's luxury by camping standards. Home comforts featured in our meals too. We feasted on couscous and Thai chicken curry for dinner. Breakfast the next morning consisted of bacon and eggs on English muffins, and coffee.
The campsite backs onto a hill, and on the other side, its framed by the water. At night, looking up at the stars, you feel a million miles from the city. You fall asleep listening to the faint sound of waves. Definitely worth another visit soon.
