Explore the Rosebud West Area
Hit the dump point early in the morning before the beach crowds arrive – you'll have easier maneuvering and shorter wait times.

Fresh water for tank filling is available at several locations around town, including near the foreshore area. Stock up on supplies at the local IGA or Woolworths before heading to more remote peninsula locations. Fuel up at the BP or Shell stations on Point Nepean Road – they're caravan-accessible and often have competitive prices.
Check the tide times if you're planning beach activities after dumping. The foreshore area offers good caravan parking during low tide periods. Local Caravan repair services are limited, so handle any maintenance issues before venturing too far down the peninsula.
