Lang Lang Foreshore Caravan Park: A Hidden Coastal Gem
Escape to a slice of old-school coastal paradise at Lang Lang Foreshore Caravan Park. Perfectly positioned right on the beach at Jam Jerrup, our park offers an authentic, relaxed camping experience with magnificent, uninterrupted views across the serene waters of Western Port Bay to French Island. Just an hour’s drive from Melbourne and a convenient 40 minutes from the attractions of Phillip Island, this is the ideal destination for those seeking a peaceful retreat without the long-distance travel. It’s a place where you can launch a kayak from your doorstep, cast a line for Gummy Sharks, or simply sit back and witness some of the most spectacular sunsets in Victoria.
Our park is a haven for those who love traditional caravanning and camping. We offer a range of accommodation including comfortable one and two-bedroom cabins, studios, and spacious, grassy powered and unpowered sites that welcome pets. The atmosphere is quiet and friendly, with a focus on enjoying the stunning natural surroundings. One of the highlights for many of our guests is the ability to have a campfire. You can hire a fire pit from our kiosk and spend the evening stargazing by the warmth of a crackling fire, creating memories that last a lifetime.
The location is a dream for anglers and boaters. The shallow mudflats of Lang Lang Beach are a renowned land-based hotspot for Gummy Sharks, Snapper, and Whiting, especially on an incoming tide. The nearby boat ramp provides easy access to the productive waters of Western Port Bay. Beyond the park, you are perfectly placed to explore the wider Gippsland region, from the charming villages of the Bass Coast to the world-famous Penguin Parade on Phillip Island. Whether you are looking for a quiet weekend of fishing or a family-friendly base for regional adventures, Lang Lang Foreshore Caravan Park offers an unforgettable coastal escape.
