It’s important to follow the rules of the air when flying at Stanwell, paying particular attention to SAFA right of way rules. To avoid any hazards, make sure you get a proper site briefing from a senior safety officer or duty pilot and stay informed before your visit by referring to helpful resources on the Fly Stanwell website. Where to stay There is a variety of accommodation options in Stanwell Park, including guest houses and campgrounds. For affordable options check out the North Era campground located on the coast track, or the Otford Park by the Royal National Park for a more leafy setting. Both are a short distance to Bald Hill. If you’re travelling with a group, a guest- house may be a better option with some nearby accommodating up to 10 guests. If you have a bit more time on your trip and want to explore the area further, Wollongong is about a 30-minute drive away and offers a range of hotels, motels, guest houses and tourist parks.
