Campsites in Margate

Discover a wonderfully peaceful retreat just five minutes from the ocean at Shelly Caravan Park. Nestled in a beautiful countryside setting just behind the vibrant coastal town of Shelly Beach, this is the ideal destination for a classic family holiday. The park offers the perfect "best of both worlds" experience, allowing you to enjoy the tranquility of a green, park-like environment while still being just a stone's throw away from the sun, sand, and excitement of the KZN South Coast. It’s a place to unwind, relax, and create lasting family memories. The park itself is a hub of gentle recreation and fun. A small, on-site dam provides a fantastic and safe focal point for activity, where guests can try their hand at catch-and-release bass fishing, or enjoy a leisurely paddle on a rowboat or canoe. For those days when the weather isn't perfect for the beach, the recreation hall is a huge hit, offering hours of entertainment with table tennis, a pool table, and darts. It’s the perfect, friendly space for some family competition or for kids to hang out and make new friends. The camping experience is designed for classic comfort and convenience. The sites are all thoughtfully laid out on a flat, beautifully grassed area, making for an easy and pleasant setup for your tent or caravan. Each of the spacious sites comes equipped with its own private braai facility and a reliable 220-volt electricity point. These are all well-supported by clean and neat ablution facilities, which offer a generous number of showers as well as the welcome luxury of two baths. It is this perfect blend of a peaceful setting and fun-filled amenities that makes Shelly a truly special family destination.
