Kaupokonui Beach Motor Camp
4.0/5
Relaxed camping along side a river.
There is some traffic coming through to the reserve below. Lovely camp owner.
The sea is better suited to walks and fishing rather than swimming.
We had great swims in the river, plenty of walks and enjoyed the relaxed vibe. This is not a top ten type place. Amenities were clean and tidy.
We enjoyed being here rather than the packed in places like Opunake. Only a short drive to swim in the sea there if we wanted anyway.
I’m told it can be a bit breezy but we had great weather.

Fitzroy Beach Holiday Park
4.5/5
We had a lovely stay here.
Wonderfully private tent site up the top. Amenities clean and new. Right on the beach. Great swims, great beach. Looks like good spaces for motor homes. Warm and friendly staff. Close to town but doesn’t feel like it.
A+ from us

Love the place!
Basic but clean. Close to some wild coast and a beautiful river. Only discovered the swimming spot on our last night! Only need to watch out for the wind!

Herbertville Seaview Holiday Park
3.0/5
An old school kiwi campground.
Facilities old but clean. Beach is amazing but a long walk to get to it and the sea is a bit scary. Great for fisher folk with boats. Can recommend the local pub with its Dutch menu and home grown veges.
