HANSRUEDI BOETSCHI
North Island ▷ Northland ▷ Kaitaia ▷
It’s the most uncomfortable, dirtiest, and most run-down campground we’ve encountered in all of New Zealand—and we’ve stayed at about 50.
Most of the sites are sloped and uneven, as well as dirty, with very little grass. We don’t even want to talk about the ancient, filthy toilets and showers. The pool isn’t inviting for swimming—it’s dirty, too. The permanent residents are nice, but there are too many of them. Just don’t go there.
