About Us

We'd spent decades building campervans.
We knew exactly what was missing.

From a Simple Idea to Life on the Road.

After years in the campervan industry — across Australia and the U.K. — we’d seen every kind of build imaginable. The luxury rigs. The budget conversions. The ones that looked great in a showroom and fell apart on a dirt road.

We kept asking the same question: why was it so hard to find a well-built, genuinely practical campervan at a price that made sense for a real Australian family?

So we decided to build one ourselves.

Built Differently. Built to Last.

Coastal Campers was founded on a straightforward belief: that quality craftsmanship and smart design shouldn’t come with a luxury price tag.

Every van we build starts with Toyota’s legendary HiAce platform — reliable, road-proven, and backed by a national dealer network. From there, our team hand-builds each conversion here in Australia, combining CNC-cut cabinetry, soft-close fittings, and marine-grade materials with layouts designed around how people actually travel.

We’re proud to hold both a motor dealer licence (MD101494) and Second Stage Manufacturer certification — meaning every Coastal Camper is fully road-legal, comprehensively warranted, and built to Australian Design Rules.

No shortcuts. No compromises.

"We’ve done the hard yards—complying with strict Australian Design Rules and passing rigorous engineering tests—so you can hit the road with complete peace of mind, backed by a 5-year Toyota warranty and our own 5-year conversion warranty."

Made for Your Life.

We noticed something when we looked at the Australian market: most campervans were either too expensive, too basic, or designed for someone else’s idea of adventure.

Coastal Campers was created to fill that gap — thoughtfully designed vans for couples escaping for the weekend, families heading up the coast, and anyone who wants the freedom to go further without the stress of a complicated setup.

Every van can be tailored to suit you — interior layouts, colour finishes, and accessories that make the space genuinely yours.

Simple to live in. Built to last. Ready when you are.
