It's fine for just a quick one night stay to explore Manganui, but there's a lot of noise from the nearby harbour, like, a lot. Otherwise felt quite safe here with a few others parked as well.

Nice carpark area next to the Maunganui Club. If it’s open you can go buy a soft drink and use the toilets, (cannot buy a beer without being a member). No toilet facilities overnight, and it could be a little noisy from the nearby industrial area. 2 nights max stay. Max 10 vehicles per night but it would be hard for them to police who got there first so I’m sure it would be okay.

We got a 400 dollar fine for staying 3 nights at 1am at night. We offered to relocate but this was not accepted. Impossible to sleep after that. Don’t stay over 2 nights. Apart from that the location is very central and close to the Mount. Spots are quite flat. One night there was a footbal match and it was very hard to get a parking spot. You can hear trains and trucks at night but quite okay for the centre.

Unable to find a spot somewhere else, i slept there 5 nights during the month, sometimes we even were more than 10 vehicles on the parking, i never got fined.

Good spot Right in the Center, in the end just a car Park but very tidy. Had almost a good night, but 4 french guys parked right beside (Wohle carpark was empty) they started to shout at 1 am and stopped around 4am. Can’t understand why it’s so hard to be quit and polite for french people. Don’t they get raised well enough if French phenomenon.

Nice location, but it’s just a car park. Unfortunately, there were quite a few of the typical French freedom campers around, and they usualy aren't the best neighbours. Little respect for others or the environment. People were openly peeing around the area, which was pretty gross. There is a toilet at Blake Park, but apparently that was too far of a walk for some.

People is suuuuuuper noisy till really late

Flat spots, it’s loud as it’s next to the port and sports areas which is fine if you are expecting it like we were. No toilets, closest public ones are a 10-15min walk away. Good phone signal of 5G. No designated spaces for the max of 10 vans which mean capacity does exceed the cap but was fine for us.

We parked here on Saturday night 8th Nov, we’ve parked here for several years and never had an issue before but on 8th Nov we had to leave it was so loud and noisy at 10 pm because there were about six different groups of young people partying outside their vans in large groups making it impossible to get to sleep. We’re concerned that this behaviour is going to ruin it for others in the future as club Mt Maunganui will remove this privilege if it continues!

Quite noisy, but a lot of space. We couldn’t find the toilets.
