Rerewhakaaitu, Ash Pit Rd Campsite
2.5/5
There was no running water from any of the taps, even though the website said this place would have running water.
We reported it to DOC, so hopefully they will fix it soon. Just make sure you have enough water when you visit this campsite.
Even though the water wasn't working, overall this site was beautiful and had a shelter to cook under.

Very lovely spot for beeing free.
The shower was very cold because it was in the open. But the view you get from the ocean during showering were all worth it. There is also a shelter to cook under. Would recommend!

Lovely spot!
There are public toilets on the road, so it takes a few minutes of driving to get to the toilet. There is a bin and the view is stunning. Felt very safe parking here, even though it is next to the road.

The toilets weren't that clean, but there is running water, a nice view of the beach and we felt safe. Nice place to stay for one night.

We absolutely loved this place.
We arrived and were'nt sure if we could camp here because we did not see a sign. So we went in and asked (they open every day from 1.30 pm). The staff was lovely and very hospitable. We could use their toilet and there is a restaurant if you want to eat in. Public toilet (24/7 open) is a 10 min walk. Very good for a free spit!

The warm shower was absolutely amazing.
We loved it. However, there were many sandflies so don't park close to the water. Furthermore, we did not always feel safe due to youth hanging around at the campsite. They left around 22:00, so that was fine.
