Cranbourne Boating Camping Fishing Store

About Cranbourne BCF

Located on the South Gippsland Highway, BCF Cranbourne is your one-stop boating, camping, fishing store and the perfect place to pick up some essentials before heading out to Phillip Island, Gippsland or to your local boat ramp. With almost 400 items on display at any one time, you can get a feel for a product before you buy. Explore our range of tents, camp chairs, fishing combos and the almost endless number of lures along with 4wd equipment and caravan accessories before you hit the road next.

For those really invested in outdoor adventures, take the drive out to Gippsland for an extended weekend of bushland and waterside camping in Croajingolong National Park, all around the Gippsland Lakes region or at the beautiful Tidal River on Wilsons Promontory. Be sure to keep cosy in the cooler months with a zero-rating sleeping bag to throw in your swag and don’t forget to set up a tarp or gazebo for shelter. If you plan to take a quick hike, our range of Outrak and Macpac is perfect for basic hiking needs, providing everything from pants and packs to boots and poles. You can also find a range of hiking stoves for the overnight trip or some durable cast iron cookware for around the campsite.

Line your camping dates up with the right fishing season to make the most of your time in the great Aussie outdoors. You’ll find tuna and kingfish are abundant during January – May and when late August hits, it’s time to chase some snapper. Squid is available all year round so be sure to head in-store to browse our range of squid jigs.

To get out on the water, head to either Warneet boat ramp, jumping into Rutherford Creek or Paterson Lakes boat ramp to launch into Patterson River. Be sure to give your tinnie some TLC with some wash and polish and during the off-season continue to fit her out with some boat navigation lights, a new sounder and a couple of rod holders.

Whether you’re towing your boat down to the ramp before dawn or heading to the campsite late at night, be sure you can light your way with our range of 4wd spotlights from XTM. While you’re in store, you can also pick up some additional 4wd equipment such as recovery gear and UHF radios for communication. If you’ve got the caravan in tow, some wheel chocks, privacy screens and a caravan cover will also come in handy.

A seasonal winter range is also available from leading brands such as Outrak, Under Armour, Quiksilver and Tide Apparel.
