Momorangi Campsite
Lovely place but super pricey.
We were charged $46 for a spot by the water in April (small camper, 2 people, powered), and then had to pay for showers on top. There were no easy access garbage bins, just those behind the shop, nowhere near sites or kitchen.
It is pretty, lovely walk, glow worms etc, and super clean toilets. But ridiculously expensive. 10 for location and facilities, 2 for price.

Great little site, quiet enough given it is by a port.
Pub across the road is as lovely as described, although food is just nice, not amazing. Great beers and wines. Campsite is the car park that has the boat ramp (at least, as far as we could work out). Two cautions: 1. The toilets next door are now closed, you need to go to the toilets c. 50 m down the road opposite the boiler park walking track (technically you could probably pull in here for the night, as the city council let's you park in most public car parks so long as you respect locals, don't sprawl everywhere, are clean, and aren't an obnoxious git); 2. Be cautious of parking too close to the water - high tide can see some water spread across the gravel, depending on conditions.

Great quiet spot, clean and pretty.
Stayed in March on a Thursday, just us. Facilities maintained. Only reason not a higher mark is that no potable water. Lots of quiet shady nooks for privacy. Wanted to upload pictures of the stunning sunset here, but app only let's you take live photos, not upload from gallery.
