Monowai Campsite
5.0/5
AMAZING!
A bit of a long drive to get here but absolutely worth it. The view and whole atmosphere of the place is wonderful. The facilities are beyond horrendous, so better if you are self-contained, but even still, one of the greatest free (or paying!!) campsites we have stayed in.

Lake McGregor
5.0/5
For 5$ per person this site had a million dollar view!
One of our favourite spots for our trip. Access straight on to the lake and clean longdrop.

Alexanders Holiday Park Picton
3.0/5
Bit of a strange campsite.
Only stayed for one night. Was perfect if you're arriving late off the ferry, staff were friendly and helpful but the whole place has an eerie run-down feel about it.

Curio Bay Camping Ground
4.5/5
Great location with the most mesmerising views.
Each parking or camping site is surrounded tightly by flax bushes to give privacy and relief from the weather, the facilities are all very new but the kitchen has nothing more than cooking hobs. No cookware, not even a rubbish bin!!(????) $2 for a 5minute shower but good water pressure and hot water. A beautiful spot, not to be missed!

Fantastic place!
Quiet site and right opposite the beach and near horse treks. The staff were amazing, very friendly and chatty. Minimal facilities but enough to suffice. Free showers.

Beautiful spot, met some great locals and enjoyed this wild piece of coastline.
Toilets were immaculate and access is very easy.
