4.5/5
Beautiful spot.
But BE AWARE...the city council pay First Security to police the site nightly at 12. So...if you’re self contained...but did it yourself... but decide to risk it anyway...because who’s going to know....the lack of that little blue sticker will cost you $200. There is claimed parking for 3 vehicles...I’d call it 2...and your close enough to touch doors. And if the first vehicle in takes a bit extra...and you just slide in next to it beside the zone...your parked illegally...$200.
So...great spot...24hr toilets...and super strict policing.

Waipu Caves
5.0/5
Great spot!
Large gravel parking area and a massive mown grass paddock for tents and games. The cave is just across the paddock (less than 1min walk) and the glow worms are 30m inside it. Good idea to wear shoes that you don’t mind getting wet in the underground stream. And a torch...so you see the holes and slippery bits. The toilets are adequate and there’s an outdoor cold water shower. Access is along a gravel road but it’s an easy drive in.
