Purakaunui Bay Campsite
It's directly at the beach, clean long drop toilets and water supply.
Don't park on the grass after lots of rain, it can get very muddy. No service at all and a long gravel road to the campsite but it's worth the view.

Amazing location at an old train station, directly next to the highway (not loud at all).

Ocean View Reserve Carpark, Dunedin
Amazing campsite next to a beautiful beach, perfect for a morning walk.
Clean flush toilets and even drink water supply. There are only very few spots available (especially for non-selfcontained cars) so come there early. They actually control if you parked in the marked area...some people woke up to a 200$ fine on their windscreens

Thornbury Bridge Picnic Area

Wingatui Racecourse
Car park from the racecourse, practical but not beautiful.
The bathrooms and flush toilets are clean and big. There's no shower, so 15$pn are a bit expensive.

Pleasant Point Domain Motor Camp
Really nice caretaker, access to kitchen with water boiler and tv lounge.
The bathroom was new and had hot showers. There's a lot of space and you can park anywhere you want to. There are New Zealand people who live there, it's nice to have a chat with them.
