Park Information & Alerts

There are alerts raised for Crowdy Bay National Park as at Tue, 22 Apr 2025 17:24:24 +1000
Safety alerts: Visitor Advisory – Road Access to Crowdy Bay National Park Campgrounds
Visitors are advised that the most suitable access route for low-clearance vehicles or those towing caravans to Diamond Head, Indian Head, and Kylies Beach campgrounds is via Diamond Head Road from the north, through Laurieton. To reach Laurieton, take the Kew exit from the Pacific Highway.
Access to Crowdy Bay National Park campgrounds via the Moorland exit is generally more challenging for vehicles towing caravans, due to narrower roads and a lower quality road surface.
For further information, please contact the local NPWS office at (02) 6588 5555.

Closed areas: Diamond Head Precinct Walking Trail Closures
Walking trails in the Diamond Head section of Crowdy Bay National Park will be affected by closures from 3rd March 2025 for maintenance and erosion repair.

• Diamond Head Loop walk 
• Forest walking track 

Walking trails will be closed during the week, with every effort made to reopen trails for weekends and public holidays. 
The works are expected to take four months to deliver, however this is weather dependant.
