McKeown Te Anau Public Dump Station
5.0/5
Easy access but busy.
Just wish hire companies provided the right fittings for their clients oh and also showed them the correct way to re insert the cassette toilet. And why don’t the hire companies tell their clients about rankers app to find these places🤷♂️
Big plus is it’s a very cheap fuel station as well.
I used the bar for an evening meal and 50 mins is a long wait for 4 meals

Great location with toilets and water.
You can hear the waves crashing on the shore as steep rocky beach.

North Island ▷ Hawkes Bay ▷ Te Awanga ▷
Clifton Road Reserve
3.5/5
First night was nice with the sound of crashing waves and people around us quiet.
Second night not sure why people need me to listen to their music, and then again in the morning. Seems to be a number of permanent campers here. I think the secret is park as far away from the toilets as possible as that is where most of the noisier group camped.
