    • Place only known to locals, hardly signposted.
    • Non-touristy spot, great for a swim.
    • Nice and kinda funny spot, but nothing special.
    • Gorgeous free camping right by the beach!

    Gorgeous free camping right by the beach!

    Had a lovely surf (not big waves but so nice ) pass cola lake on your right and keep going 2/3mins down loads of camping cold shower clean toilets beautiful views. Dump station 15mins up road at carribgton. Ground is a bit uneven but dooable for most vehicles. Didn’t get bothered by anyone (have seen on other reviews about a local ) and about 10 other campers but felt we had own space !

    Water has the colour of Coca Cola, good for a swim.

    Nice and kinda funny spot, but nothing special.

    A big brown lake next to a nice beach!

    The lake is called Roto Po Kaka and a bit hard to find. Park at the marked spot, where the toilets are, and walk along the beach where the motorhomes are in the freedom camping zone. There's a sign, which shows the lake on the right.

    Lake looks and smells look it is coca cola. Swimming in it is supposed to have healing powers.

    Lake really looks like Cola, but for me only smelt like normal water.

    A little hard to find.

    Do not miss Doubtless Bay nearby.
