  • Really difficult to book/find out about through the infamous Auckland Council system.

    Found out after two phone calls that the campsite is closed until Sept 2015.

  • Great little spot.

    Booked through the Auckland City Council website- easy as. Met ‘Uncle Tom’ the care taker. Good piece of advice - don’t pitch your tent near the toilet block. The outdoor lights are ferociously strong. Campsite is only 8km from the Bay View hotel/pub. Nice friendly pub with great meals. Worth a look....

  • Nice campsite with plenty of space and clean washrooms with good showers.

    Stayed here our first night after landing in Auckland. Walked to the beach across the road for a lovely view.

  • Great peaceful spot with clean facilities.

    Lots to do! A short walk to the beach. Bike or walk around the adjacent regional park. The bush is full of bird life. A lovely spot to sit and relax and enjoy reading my book.The ranger is very friendly. There is a dump station across the road. The bonus is you can stay for more than two nights.

  • Our first campground after getting our campervan in Auckland.

    Hot showers, powerplant, nice area. Fires are prohibited but you can go down to the sea and make a nice bonfire. Perfect place to start our camping holiday.
