What guests are saying
Summary distilled from 308 Google reviews
Esperance Showgrounds is a council-run overflow camping ground with clean facilities but minimal amenities. No power or water on sites; toilets are a walk away. Best suited as a last-resort option when other parks are full, particularly for travellers crossing the Nullarbor. Value for money is a common concern given the basic offering and high tariff.
