North Island ▷ Waikato ▷ Tokoroa ▷
Gorgeous location, although the gravel road to get there is very narrow.
The bathrooms were not very clean. People came down to the campsite with their jetskis as well, so that was fun to watch.
North Island ▷ Coromandel ▷ Whangamata ▷
Beautiful spot, but people camp out super early in the day (it seems everywhere in Coromandel) so it's very hard to find a legal spot if you actually want to do something during the day.
Enforcers come by pretty much every day here so be careful to park correctly.
North Island ▷ Auckland Region ▷ Orewa ▷
Beautiful views!
There are not a lot of spaces for overnight parking, just behind the yellow line at the end of the lot. There are, however, multiple campervans parked outside of those spaces and it does not really seem to be an issue. We spoke to multiple people who said that they've never seen an enforcer. We left quite early the next morning, so cannot confirm if someone came by or not. Toilets are fine and there is a dump station.

Beautiful location!
The beach is hidden by some sanddunes, but you can still fall asleep with the sound of waves :). The staff is very friendly and toilets were clean and didn't smell. The long and winding road to get there is quite worth it.
