North Island ▷ Hawkes Bay ▷ Waipukurau ▷
Te Paerahi Beach
Lovely spot, good cell phone coverage and immaculately clean flushing toilets, plus drinking water.
2 minutes walk to a beautiful, quiet beach with rich wildlife. Good shelter, hardly anyone around - we visited in May and didn’t speak to a soul for 2 days! Worth bringing stuff to eat as the shop isn’t walking distance.

North Island ▷ Wairarapa ▷ Featherston ▷
Bucks Road Campsite
Lovely spot with plenty of space and track down to the river.
One (ok) long drop toilet, several km of gravel road to entry. Worth a stop to drink your Martinborough spoils!
-
South Island ▷ Mount Cook - MacKenzie ▷ Omarama ▷
Round Bush Campsite
Beautiful simplicity, quiet and peaceful.
Long drops and no facilities to mention, balanced out by wonderful views and no cost. It is a fair drive from the main road (about 25 min), but a good option nonetheless.

South Island ▷ Canterbury ▷ Christchurch ▷
Waihora Park Domain Camping Ground
Lovely open space with benches, recycling facilities and bins, clean toilet block (if slightly rough around the edges), and good shelter from the wind!
Absolute bargain at $10 per vehicle, a great place to stop on the beautiful Banks Peninsula.

South Island ▷ Nelson Region ▷ St Arnaud ▷
Teetotal Campsite
Nice, simple, quiet and well kept campground, good for all vehicles which is useful if you’re not self contained!
2 long drops - same old, nothing special but all good. $8pppn paid into an honesty box, good location for access to walks around Nelson lakes! Would return.
