Sunset Beach Holiday Park is located in Geraldton, Western Australia, and offers powered sites close to the beach and only a short distance from town. We paid about $55 per night for a powered site for two people, which puts it in the range you’d expect for a coastal caravan park with solid facilities and a convenient location.

Our Experience

Overall, Sunset Beach Holiday Park felt like a good practical place to stay in Geraldton. Check-in was straightforward, and the staff were friendly and helpful, explaining everything we needed to know on arrival.

The park has clean, well-maintained amenities, although they are not the newest. They were perfectly serviceable and in line with what we would expect in a park of this type. Like many parks, there was a code needed to access them.

There is also a swimming pool on site, which looked clean and well maintained during our stay.

Our powered site was level and easy enough to settle into, although being directly opposite the playground wouldn’t have been our ideal location. That said, you don’t always get the perfect site in a caravan park, and the level pad was still a plus.

The park is well positioned for beach access, and there is also a walking track you can follow all the way into Geraldton. One of the nicer touches is the sunset viewing deck, which seems to be a popular spot in the evening for people to sit with a drink and watch the sun go down. From there, you can also see the grain ships lined up on the horizon waiting to dock, which gives the view a bit of local character.

One thing worth noting is security. When we checked in, we were advised not to leave anything out and to make sure the car was locked whenever it was unattended. While we were there, some cars were broken into. It wasn’t clear whether the vehicles had been left unlocked or not, but it’s something to be aware of. In fairness, this can be fairly typical of caravan parks located close to town centres.

The beach itself is nice to have nearby, but it may not suit everyone for swimming. It’s mostly soft sand, and because it is open to the ocean rather than sheltered, conditions may not always be ideal. It was too cold for us while we were there, so we didn’t swim, but we still appreciated the beach access and the option to walk along the coast.

Summary

Sunset Beach Holiday Park is a convenient and generally well-kept caravan park in Geraldton, with friendly staff, level powered sites, clean facilities, a pool, and easy access to the beach. The sunset viewing deck is a nice feature, and the outlook toward the grain ships adds a bit of interest.

It’s not perfect, the beach is exposed, and security is worth noting, but overall it felt like a good option for a stay in town.
