Hi all Is there Free Camp in Melbourne before or near the port for the ferry to Tasmania? Cheers Troy

We stayed at Werribee South CP about 30 mins from the terminal, not free but not expensive either.

Werribee South Caravan Park

+61 03 9742 1755 (Office Hours: 8am-6pm AEST)

39 Beach Road, Werribee South VIC 3030

You can sneak into some of the beachfront car parks surrounded by tea-tree along Beach Road & then proceed to Station Pier via Beaconsfield Parade. Quite a few people get away with it.

Park late & take off early next morning. Wait until the Rangers knock off for the day. At this time of the year these car parks will be full of beach goers until dark.

No free camps available, too close to Melbourne's CBD.

Have seen people stopping on the Boulavarde, Sandridge Beach, on the beach side, direct run to Station Pier from there.
