Sustainability Commitment
As Australia’s original luxury camp and a pioneer in sustainable tourism, Paperbark Camp has had accreditation with Ecotourism Australia since opening in 1999. The core objective is to offer guests an immersive encounter with nature while minimizing ecological impact through sustainable practices. This includes the use of renewable energy, reliance on natural ventilation (no air-conditioning) and low voltage lighting and power and the implementation of comprehensive waste management systems to reduce landfill contributions. Paperbark Camp also prioritizes local and sustainable sourcing of food and materials, fostering a connection with the surrounding community and environment. Conservation efforts are integral, with a focus on protecting native wildlife and habitats, ensuring that the natural beauty and biodiversity of the region are preserved for future generations. Through education and engagement, the camp aims to inspire guests to adopt sustainable practices in their own lives, making luxury tourism a catalyst for positive environmental change.

Eco Lodge of Australia
Inspired by the great tented camps of Africa, Paperbark Camp opened in 1999 and five years on continues to provide unique accommodation and superb food in a tranquil native bush environment. Australia’s first truly tented camp is located on the banks of the Currambene Creek near the pristine and white sand beaches of Jervis Bay, NSW. Canoes and bikes are provided for guests enjoyment and it is a perfect base for exploring this beautiful area, only 2½ hours from Sydney. After dining in the tree top Gunyah restaurant and being entertained by our inquisitive possums, retire to your tent and be lulled to sleep be the restful sounds of the Australian bush.
