5.0/5
Spectacular location and beach.
This has to be one of the best DOC camps in the country. If the sea were just a bit warmer it would be #1.

4.5/5
A very pleasant camp surrounded by native bush and heaps of bird life.
We stayed here 2 days entertained by wood pigeons and weka. Super quiet apart from the owls (moreporks) calling at night. It's right off the beaten track and you need to be totally self-sufficient if you come here. The nearest shops, fuel, etc., are right back at the Rai Valley village. A major plus is a sealed road all the way from the state highway.
