Okains Bay Camping Ground
4.5/5
Huge campground right on the beach.
Plenty of space for everyone and a large variety of camp sites. Make sure to book before you arrive as the cell coverage is sketchy and you may not get wifi. The office is not always open. Pay $2 for a shower if you need one. Hot boiling water in the kitchen. Bring your own equipment for the kitchen. Toaster and hot plates ONLY there. No oven. Take your own water as the water there has to be boiled 3mins before drinking. Lovely spot. The road is extremely windy and steep so drive with extreme caution.
Great place to chill out and relax.

Kaikoura Peketa Beach Holiday Park
3.0/5
Good location, only 7km south of Kaikoura.
Tent camping is by the beach, however it is a first in first served situation where no sites are marked out and as it fills up in the afternoon, people are now on top of each other. Really not desirable. Must be absolute chaos with young children running around. Make sure to get in early and pitch your tent. See till no guarantee that someone we will not camp extremely close to you!
