    The most picturesque campsite during our great walk.

    There were just 2 other tents that we did not see from our spit. Just a stair down to the beach. Wekas walking around. Dolphins in the bay in the evening!

    Little used for walkers as it's a side trip down to the beach.

    Walking

    But it's a wonderful little spot with a great outlook over the Astrolabe.

    Kayaking

    Very sheltered from the summer sea breeze, it's a choice overnight option before tackling the Mad Mile first thing the next day.
