Earl Adams Paradise Camp
4.5/5
Earls place is a ‘must stay’.
Earl is a genuine long term (great grandparents from there) local! He kindly drove and showered me where to start the walk to the spectacular New Chums beach … as well as another gorgeous beach at the opposite end. Earl makes you feel really welcome and his site looks over beautiful Whangapoua, so you can go to sleep listening to the sea :). I’ll be back !!!!

Akitio Beach Camping Ground
3.0/5
Sadly I arrived on a wet windy afternoon and it rained with gusty wind all night.
Never got a chance to explore or enjoy the beach.
$30 per night for a powered site, solo
Didn’t even leave my motorhome … just too wet and miserable so didn’t use any facilities.
Long windy road in, I came from Masterton, check the weather before you venture here and stock up your supplies, small shop only. There is a local takeaway but only open weekends or end of week.
Would love to revisit in the summer and truly enjoy
