There’s 50+ overnight spots for campers along Marine Parade, clearly signposted and only allowed on weekdays in the peak season.
We stayed late Feb, and it ended up very full.
18 min drive to central Chch, no view from the parking spots, average public toilets nearby. Good if you need somewhere close to the city, but not much else going for them otherwise.

Great dump station, lots of space.
Google maps took us to the wrong place, you turn off the main road into the dump station which is well sign posted - don’t go down the small road off the turn in the road.

Good spot with beautiful sea views.
Space for 10 vehicles max. Toilets a short walk away. Playground for the kids. No noise from cars in the night, as it’s a quiet road and spot is far enough away from the road.
