    Good free camping spot.

    Stayed one night in a campervan and it was great! Small grassy camping area at the end of a rural street. Road leads to the beach but you can’t access it as there’s water blocking the way. One picnic table. One long drop toilet near by that does the job. There’s a house not too far but it was still very quiet and peaceful. You can hear the sound of the waves. Would definitely go back 👌🏻

    There is literally only a porta-loo there, nothing else.

    Nice and quiet, no other cars here when we stayed.

    It's located at the end of a street of family houses, green space, picnic table, farm nearby. You can smell the cows a little, some duck noises in the morning. You can hear the sound of the ocean. There's a portable toilet, no running water.

    Nice free spot.

    There’s a porta toilet. One picnic bench. No access to the beach unless you wade through water. Really peaceful spot - so quiet and nice views of the mountains in the distance. Good for a night on a long journey. Grass so you can pitch a tent.

    Not really a place for tents!

    There's maybe one spot for a van, but it's definitely not a place a camper with a tent wants to go as it was a tiny patch of grass at the end of a block of homes. There's one toilet drop at the end of the block, it's in a weird spot next to a house. Avoid if camping.
