Recent research shows that Australians are spending approximately 19 hours on the internet each week* and that children are not getting enough exercise or time outdoors. In fact, less than one in five Australian children aged between five and 17 years meet the recommended 60 minutes of physical activity each day**.
Destination NSW Chief Executive Officer Sandra Chipchase said, “A ‘device free’ camping trip in NSW is the perfect chance to get the family talking to each other, and spending quality time together in the great outdoors. NSW offers an exceptional range of caravan and camping parks across the State that provide the perfect backdrop for a digital detox holiday.”
“The simplicity of a caravan and camping holiday is that it gives you the freedom to enjoy the very best of NSW, with our holiday parks located in stunning natural surroundings by the beach, in the bush, on a lake or by a river. No one will want to ‘log on’ when there are so many fun family adventures to experience together.”
Here are ten camp grounds in NSW where you can enjoy a ‘device free’ caravan and camping holiday:
- Pebbly Beach campground in the Murramarang National Park on the South Coast is the quiet getaway you’ve been looking for. Couple that with an unpowered campground and you have a tech-free oasis. You may even be lucky enough to meet a resident kangaroo or two
- Head to the Central Coast for some downtime at Frazer Campground in the Munmorah State Conversation Area. With only six campsites, you’ll find plenty to do at this secluded location – swimming at Frazer beach or in the lagoon, fishing, scuba diving, surfing and walking to name just a few
- Swap your laptop for your fishing rod at Inland Waters Holiday Parkes Lake Keepit, located on the banks of Keepit Dam, near Tamworth. Renowned for its fishing and water activities, you’ll enjoy their rustic bush campsites complete with open fires
