Lovely spot next to the beach, there are just a few spots for campers. Clear toilets are available. There is 5$ donation for a night to keep it clean and maintained. There is a very poor phone service, if there is any.

To be avoided at all costs, this is not a freecamp 10 dollars per person to be on the side of a dusty road on a sloping ground with no shade...

Wouldn't waste the 48 km. If you can find a spot as looks like it has its permanents and park beside dusty road with motorbikes and dune buggies flying past.

Definately one to miss, a very small unkempt area for camping, stayed for a quick 10 min walk on stoney washing machine shore break beach and hightailed it out of there. Difficult to find in that marker on nzma map is not accurate, won't be back to this one

A bit difficult to find, but once you get to the huts area, take the top road, which is a narrow gravel road then drop down past some houses till you get to the camping area on your left. Small area with semi permanent caravans there, possibly just for the salmon season. Free to stay but a $5 donation box set up by toilet, which were very clean and tidy when we were there.

As above . Probably not the best place around. Unless u r a couple of blokes

Not very pleasant. Small grassed area with overflowing bins and smelly toilet.

This gives instructions to the southern side of the Rakai river mouth settlement in the Dorie area of Ashburton. You will need to follow Kingsbury road to the camp ground. The Rakai Huts settlement is on the northern side of the river South east of Southbridge at the end of Pacific drive.

Drive right on into the hut village, their is a large sign, read the top line. It tells you where to park at the campsite. NOT a big site, permanent caravans take up a lot of space. Water available & a toilet block. Short walk to the beach, but the river seemed elusive, lot of locals had quad bikes. Best during weekdays and avoid weekend gatherings
