Great to fall asleep with the ocean right at our back door!
Watched a beautiful moonrise over the ocean. Campsite manager was lovely, toilet facilities were clean. Drinking water has possibly had some salt water contaminants so they recommend boiling it. Easy to find a spot in Winter but I could see it getting busy in summer!

5.0/5
This is the best campsite on the entire South Island.
I almost don’t want to give it 10/10 as then more people will discover this magical spot. Jesse and his family have thought of every possible need a Traveller may have! Warm fire for winter, delicious home cooked biscuits and soothing warm showers are some of the facilities available. Their campsite comes with a beautiful story and they are happy to share their exerpeince and knowledge of the area with you! Don’t miss out on this West Coast gem! We will definitely be back to base ourselves here and explore Kahurangi NP further!

We were the only campers here on this Winter’s evening.
Fell asleep with the sound of the ocean almost beside our camper door. Strolled up the hill for a look at the glow worms! Gorgeous! Toilet facilities were modern and relatively clean.
