Check-Ins

Only 5 rigs camping here on a Saturday night. Plenty of flat dirt space for overlanders, RV or trucks towing trailers. Same as other comments. No TP in the One banos for entire camping area. Restaurant has banos but only open when restaurant is open. The beach/playa is beautiful, walkable & low surf. Saw dolphins here today. Bugs at sunset. Paid $370 pesos for 1 night. Loud music next door at rental place but hey it’s Semana Santa week. For some loco reason they turn water off at night! No way to flush the one toilet in the morning & no access to shower. Not cool after paying $370. I do like the vibe & location. 2 RVs got stuck in sand & tractor towed them out.

giant leisure area with a natural lake where you can swim, canoeing, Firefox.
there is also a pool and a big picnic area with lots of barbecues, so don't forget to bring your steak with you.
the campsite is totally new and close to this area
plug-points are not at site, but we used the plug-point in the washroom.
there are hot showers, clean toilets and a kitchen area.
very nice.
150 kw pppn.

We were not able to dump when we got here because they have a gate that is closed I’m assuming during non business hours. I’m sure it still works just make sure you come here during business hours.

Development site abandoned for years. Walled on all 4 sides, slept here last night with no problems.
Currently used by locals as a dump site, many mattresses, trashed furniture, and a jetski in the road, so drive carefully at night.

Couldn't see any signs anywhere.

I was the only person here last night.

laid back place for pitching your tent. view is really nice. friendly staff. manager is pretty much into cycling 😎
just be aware that it takes time to go to city and back because the main gimmick of this location is, that it's up on the hill.

still $25 for basic room with shared bathroom. good but noisy AC. restaurant is expensive AF, walk 5 min into town and get some good street food.

Very friendly people, we weren't planning to stay here so it was a bit of an unplanned one. Each pitch has it's own bathroom block, grass area and 2 electric points. It's not as beautiful as a farm but it works well, there is a garage a shop and a cafe.

here are some pictures, according to my comment

Still a beautiful and quiete place! 5 km outside Lambertsbay. Grassie and shadie sides. Old, but clean ablutions.
250,- Rand for two a night.

There is a guesthouse at the ranger post of the national park where you can also camp with your car.

Bia National Park is a beautiful rainforest. There are many large jungle trees here. Here you can go into the national park with a ranger.

Great place to stay. Like everyone suggested friendly and quiet place. Quiet a few people stopped and welcomed us. It got quiet after 8:00 pm. Nice was very peaceful. Also, drove to the waterfall but preferred thus place Waterfall was just tricking water as it is dry season on Panama right now.
There are two groceries store which are readily accessible and fully stocked.
There are water faucets around park but there was no water. One gentleman told me faucet by municipal building should have water running. I did not check.

Nice place! A lot of shadow under the trees.
The toilets and showers are really clean and there is hot water.
The view from the bar and the pool are just amazing.
The prices are not correct anymore, they asked us 15$ ppn non negotiable.

Agree with precedent minds. A good stop, very quite if you like that , safe.

Perfectly thought out, level and large campsitw Dont miss it. Quacking duck hid sounds of trucks until border closed at 10pm! Stayed in Kingfisher. RECOMMENDED

As others have stated, there has been a price increase.
Although we were charged a local price. Seems like a smile can help you negotiate.
We paid $15000ARS $17USD for 2 people and a tent.
Has ele electricity and lighting at each camp site.

nice campground directly at the beach, Paul, the owner is very frie dly and the food delicious.
prices: camping for free, if you eat and Drink, otherwise about 75Cedi.
Food about 60Cedi and Drinks between 10 - 20 cedi (even for a big beer).

Highly recommend, from here you can even walk along the beach to the tourist Office for the village in the Lake (about 5km west).

Next to a small archaeological site directly at the tourism police is a parking place, where you are welcome to stay for one night. Friendly police officer asked for Passports. Good view to Jordan valley.

A good mechanic, very friendly. We had a problem with the clutch pedal, and we couldn't drive anymore. He let us sleep in our motorhome in front of his house without worries. The next day, he had redone almost the same pedal, in metal, perfect! We paid 600bob, a little expensive but good work.

This is an amazing place where you can see an amazing waterfall.

A gorgeous hacienda with well-appointed rooms with and a lovely dining room, all with large windows.

The rooms are not cheap - dorms start at $29-35 and go up from there.

More attractive for budget travellers would be the camping option, a couple of hundred metres away with views of Cotopaxi. Camping is $12.20

There is a restaurant with good (but again, above budget prices) meals. Mains are $12-14, and full dinner is $20

Still ok, crowded but huge, you can find a more or less quiet place. The good thing is that people don't pick-nick here, so the noise is just from cars passing by. We slept better here than on the beach/corniche.

lugar muy tranquilo , en la punta de playa del sol , a veces concurrido por pescadores , pasamos la noche muy tranquilos , mucho espacio , sin servicios se puede llegar con el motorhome hasta el borde del lago

very easy passing both aduanas coming from Chile. No controls. We got 240 day for our camper.

The park is open year round but showers are only seasonal. I contact the park caretakers and they confirmed showers are closed until camping season starts. The co-op in Quesnel is best spot for a free shower

This dumping place is closed for the season (March 23rd 2024)

Sanitary block at the entrance of the Headquarters campground (coordinates may not be super accurate though). There's a tap outside by the door where you can refill your jugs. The lady at the reception told us we could use it or the inside sinks (laundry section) that should be pretty deep. We were simply visiting the park and not staying at the campground. There are also indoor toilets and big garbage bins outside for your waste & recyclables!

A beautiful camp site with lots of Ghaf trees for shade and views of the dunes and far off mountains amongst local camel farms. No facilities are available and 4x4 is recommended due to some soft sand tracks to get there. Supermarkets close by for supplies.

Wonderful river CP with an established table, benches, easy river access. it is obviously used by the community but no signs delineating trespassing or private property and not gated. coming from the south, on the east side of the river, there is a double track leading left along the river before the main gravel road begins to climb. Follow the double track then follow a foot path that continues around the river shore to this wonderful spot. Leave no trace as always. If you see locals ask permission. it is obviously a frequented and well maintained spot. Hello in Mapuche/Mapuzugun is "Mari Mari" :)

No wind!
Silence!
No mosquitos!
Free of charge!!

Just register at the ranger station/entrance.

A little road around the fortress. 4x4 not needed. Quiet. River is not suitable to drink but still nice. Try to climb over a fortress hill to have adventures. Magti 4G works but slow.
