The Best Romantic Getaways To Take In Your Campervan In Australia


Are you and your significant other looking for a unique and romantic getaway? Have you ever considered exploring the beautiful landscapes of Australia in a campervan? A campervan offers the perfect opportunity to experience the breathtaking beauty of Australia with the freedom to create your own itinerary.

In this post, we’ll be sharing some of the best romantic getaways to take in your campervan in Australia, providing you with everything you need to know to plan your perfect adventure.

1. The Great Ocean Road

Stretching along the south-eastern coast of Australia, the Great Ocean Road offers one of the most scenic routes in the country. This 243-kilometre-long road winds along the coast, offering stunning views of the ocean, cliffs, and wildlife. This is an absolutely unmissable route if travelling between Adelaide and Melbourne.

One of the highlights of this trip is the Twelve Apostles, a group of limestone stacks off the shore of Port Campbell National Park. The best time to visit is at sunrise or sunset when the sun’s rays illuminate the stacks, creating a beautiful and romantic atmosphere.

2. The Blue Mountains

Located just a short drive from Sydney, the Blue Mountains offer a unique and romantic escape. This region is known for its breathtaking views of the mountains, deep valleys, and natural landmarks such as the Three Sisters.

A highlight of the Blue Mountains is the Jenolan Caves, a system of limestone caves that offer a magical experience for couples. Take a guided tour through the caves, explore the natural beauty and learn about the history of the area.

3. The Great Barrier Reef

For couples seeking adventure and romance, a trip to the Great Barrier Reef is a must. Explore the world’s largest coral reef system and discover the incredible marine life that inhabits the waters. Campervan Village has several rental locations along Australia's east coast that would make for a good departure point to visit this stunning destination.

Take a guided snorkelling or scuba diving tour, or if you prefer to stay dry, take a helicopter or seaplane tour for a bird’s-eye view of the reef. Finish your day with a romantic sunset dinner cruise and experience the beauty of the Great Barrier Reef at night.

4. The Whitsundays

The Whitsundays are a collection of 74 islands located in the heart of the Great Barrier Reef. With crystal clear waters, white sandy beaches, and plenty of secluded coves, it’s the perfect place for a romantic getaway.

Take a day trip to Whitehaven Beach, known for its bright white sands and turquoise waters. Snorkel or scuba dive the nearby reefs, and soak up the sun in one of the many secluded coves.

5. The Kimberley

The Kimberley is a vast and remote region in Western Australia, known for its rugged landscapes, ancient rock formations, and stunning waterfalls. This region offers the perfect opportunity to escape the crowds and experience the beauty of Australia’s outback.

Take a scenic flight over the Bungle Bungle Range, a unique rock formation that resembles beehives, and explore the hidden gorges and waterfalls of the Mitchell Plateau. If you're looking for the perfect camper to explore this region, you can't look past Campervan Village's premium 4WD Campers
