Waitangi Holiday Park
Clean, basic campsite, but lacks in charm.
Nice places with view of the water.

Aroha Island
Great place to stay to relax, feeling that you are surrounded by nature.
The unpowered campsites near the water were a bit windy. Kitchen and showers are good. A nice BBQ area. The highlight of the camping was kiwi spotting in the dark! At the reception we got some information and red covers for our lights. It was exciting to walk in the dark searching for kiwis! We did hear Henrietta the female kiwi real close, but unfortunately did not see her.
The only thing missing are facilities for laundry, but as we only stayed 1 night, that was not a problem.

Ahipara Top 10 Holiday Park
We stayed here 1 night.
Excellent unpowered campsite, surrounded by some bushes. Nice sitting areas, close to the reception and outside. Many backpackers who stay there and work in a farm nearby. Place had a nice vibe. Kitchen was okay, but small.

Whangarei TOP 10 Holiday Park
Clean and basic campsite.
Stayed there on our way to Tutukaka, for some excellent diving, which is a 30 minute drive. Unfortunately we didn't had time to see the recommended areas/walks nearby the holiday park.

Parakai Springs Aquatic Park & Motor Camp
Stayed here on our last night in New Zealand, the place feels a bit deserted.
At the campsite there were locals, but few tourist.
Wanted to have dinner somewhere, but everything seemed closed.
Campsite is clean, but basic.
The hot pools next door are an excellent way to spend the evening.
