Good luck with that. I have a feeling your question would be better in the joke section

Isn't there one out the front of that pub that gives out free beer. You know the one, next door to the electoral office of that politician that always tells the truth.

If you can afford a small amount money here is some that would be low cost in near north coast of NSW, Qld really has not got surf beaches as they are spoilt by a beautiful reef along the coast.

Iluka. Bundjalong N/P. This one has hot showers.

Brooms Head. Yuraygir N/P

Minnie Waters. YuraygirN/P

You may pay few dollars but it will be a great experience.

Heres a couple in Qld.

Rainbow Beach, inskip Point

Noosa North, Great Sandy N/P

South Ballina usually has some deal happening. 2 for 1 etc. Stay there once & they then send SMS when deals are on. Park is pet friendly but can't take the dog on the beach there. It's a good stop over. You can take the ferry into Ballina. Cheers Pete

Hi Leather Tech. Don't mind my attempt at humour. Once you get around Grafton try Wooli, further north try Black Rock, Evans Head and Iluka. They all charge but are really worth the price and experience. Evans Head is my favourite, good beach, great RSL on the water and nice fish and chips just up from the RSL near the round about.

Enjoy north NSW, the best place in the whole country (in my biased opinion)

Workmans Campground is at Workmans Beach about 200m south of Agnes Water. Interestingly Workmans Beach used to be the "A" Grade point break in the area till a cyclone destroyed the sand build up next to the point and is the photo of the secret spot in the Endless Summer 2 movie.
