DOC campsite at end of long drive.

Two beautiful bays to walk and explore. White sand. We stayed in campervan at top site. As it is winter only a few sites that weren't boggy that could be used. Only us and 1 other van. Looks like they allow campers on lower site near toilet block. Resident DOC manger not friendly. Also some not very friendly locals who have access to drive on beach in very unroadworthy vehicles.

We stayed in June and liked it at the bottom park as we were the only ones there.

Beautiful beach.

Had a flat tyre in the morning (Sunday of course) and the local guy at the campside hut was not helpful giving us info where we can get tyre fixed. Found a real great guy on main road and he works 7 days a week. His sign is right outside. Warren 0277489402. Job done!

We tried staying here but when we arrived found that it was fully booked!

It looked beautiful.

It is accessed by a semi short gravel road. We did it with our caravan and it was slow going.

When we got here they referred us to an other DOC campsite 1.5 hours away, which they knew had room.

It would be better if there was a booking system or direct number to call. It would have saved us a good 1hr+ drive.

Beautiful grounds; lots of space, clean bathrooms.

Cold shower only, which we didnt see but its winter so we didn't look, either. Staff person was polite and friendly. Would recommend, & return. On your way, gravel road.

A beautiful slice of heaven.

Came on Easter weekend with a lot of locals enjoying their break. What a courteous bunch to camp with 👍👍

One of the most beautiful beaches I have seen in New Zealand.

Beautifully maintained spacious site and great facilities.

Nice big campsite and plenty of space.

Basic toilets, cold showers outside. The beaches here are stunning and worth a visit.

A slice of paradise!!

Green lawns to pitch a tent with lots of shade. No views from the campsites but when you walk over the hill to the beach it is breathtaking. You can expect mozzies and possums at night just like anywhere else in nature - not a biggie. The ranger was super nice and helpful. We stayed two nights and left reluctantly. Will definitely be back!

Beach camping is always the positive.

Showers are outdoors so no privacy. Toilets not the cleanest.

There’s no one in the office the 2 days we were there so not sure how you’re suppose to pay if you don’t have any cash on you?? Had to call the city council later to set up payment.

Grass area for camping. Lots of shade. Beach is nice which really made it enjoyable. Clean grounds, no rubbish etc laying around.

EXTREMELY BAD FOR BUGS.

Beautiful to visit for the day but would not highly recommend.

Great location right next to the beach.

Flush toilets in a block near the beach with outside cold showers. Lots of flies around at night time and also some kids making a nuisance nearby at night. The camp backs on to a public road and some people (kids?) threw rocks and one hit our van and then ran off up the road. We told the guy who is the ranger there and he said it is a common problem. If we had known before we would have not camped up near that road side.
