Okains Bay Camping Ground
4.5/5
What this camping lacks in modern shower facilities it more than makes up for in location and ambience.
The private beach is long and beautiful! We extended our stay because we liked it so much.

Fairlie Holiday Park
4.5/5
Good campsite, sufficient space.
Clean showers and toilets. Friendly staff and not crowded in December. Decent rates. This was a relief compared to seemingly over-crowded campings near Lake Tekapo.

South Island ▷ Nelson Region ▷ Abel Tasman ▷
Tōtaranui Campground
4.5/5
I can imagine this can be quite crowded, and with good reason, but when we were here (mid-November) it was only 1/3 full.
Selected our spot next to the water. Truly amazing view. Clean showers, no power, but a dump station at the entrance. Lots of short and long hikes starting from the site. Well worth the hassle of driving to the north end of Abel Tasman. One of the most beautiful spots we've been to.

North Island ▷ Tairāwhiti Gisborne ▷ Wairoa ▷
Oraka Reserve, Mahia
3.5/5
Although there is a clean toilet, we found the spot fairly busy (mid-November) and the views are nice but not the best we have seen.
There are free spots for self contained vehicles (no facilities) along the nearby Ormond drive and Nuhaka Opoutama road with much nicer views (but without the toilets).

North Island ▷ Auckland Region ▷ Miranda ▷
Rays Rest Camping Reserve
3.5/5
Although this site was quite busy (weekend in mid-November), the view was breathtaking though.
Great for a first night in a self-contained vehicle. No facilities on site.

South Island ▷ Nelson Region ▷ Nelson ▷
Wakapuaka Reserve Carpark
2.0/5
Although there is a toilet, this spot is extremely noisy due to the proximity to the highway.
Furthermore there is no clear signage indicating the spot / indicating that camping is allowed (at all).

North Island ▷ Bay of Plenty ▷ Te Puke ▷
Dotterel Point Overnight Campervan Parking
4.5/5
Extremely beautiful spot.
We were lucky enough to be alone. A bit much asphalt but the views are truly fantastic. Furthermore there is a toilet, 1 cold shower and picnic tables. What's more to want on a free spot.

North Island ▷ Wairarapa ▷ Martinborough ▷
Martinborough TOP 10 Holiday Park
4.0/5
We came in late but the staff was very helpful in leaving instructions.
Facilities are top notch. No spectacular views though.
