At some point when you start travelling around Australia, you may want or need to stay in a caravan park. Caravan Parks in Australia come in all shapes and sizes. Many of these caravan parks belong to a chain or network of caravan parks and offer Caravan Park Membership. This means they can offer you discounts on your stay or reward you for staying in their parks.
But which Caravan Park Membership should you choose? Which one offers the most benefits and most importantly which one will suit your family and the way you like to travel?
We take a look at the most popular chains and the benefits their membership offers. And also take a look at a couple of membership options that are not attached to a particular park network.
