The significant spike in occupancy numbers reflected a trend at other North Coast Holiday Parks as holidaymakers turned to the traditional camping and caravanning trip to celebrate the holiday season.
NSW Crown Holiday Parks Trust (NSWCHPT) CEO Steve Edmonds said “the Christmas break saw record numbers staying at all parks in the Trust’s portfolio, with many at full capacity throughout the festive season.”
“Other parks in the North Coast of NSW such as Hawks Nest, Forster Beach and Tuncurry Beach also saw a significant increase in guests over the holiday period.”

NCHP is operated by NSWCHPT, which manages the operations of 36 coastal and inland holiday parks and a number of recreational reserves on Crown land throughout NSW.
NCHP Seal Rocks Managers Katrina and Stephen Cawley attribute the growth in guest numbers to recent improvements made to the park.
More park upgrades are planned for the first half of this year. Those already completed include finalisation of new roads and a relocated park entrance; upgrades to the sewer, water and electrical networks; installation of a new amenities block and manager’s residence; relocation of four cabins; demolition of the old amenities blocks, tanks and maintenance shed; retaining walls and new powered sites.
