A surprise Not a big park but next to the water. Sunrise over the ocean was amazing. $40 for a powered sites including 4 min hot showers. Facilities are basic but the location is not. Stairs take you down to the beach. Caretaker friendly and helpful. There was a kitchen which we did not use but someone was cooking egg and bacon for breakfast and it smelled devine

Really cute little spot, felt very safe. Caretaker comes in the evenings & mornings, they were super friendly! $35 per site for unpowered or $40 per site for powered (two of us). Kitchen was fully stocked and had a water boiler too, which was perfect for my hot water bottle. Toilets and showers are definitely dated, but very clean and water was hot (and included in the price) Laundry was $3 per load, no dryer. You choose your spot on the map and make sure no ones name is written down for there.

Stunning views of the sea and beach. One of our favourite campsites we’ve stayed in due to this. We had a lovely walk along the beach in the evening and watched the sunrise the next day. Friendly lady taking bookings, felt very relaxed. Bathroom facilities quite basic but clean.

Great site, right by the sea, nice facilities (including hot shower and kitchen), and a great cockerel to keep you company.

Beautiful campground right at the beach- surf spot when swell is good. Full equipped kitchen and very nice caretaker. One of the best spots during our travel!

Nice campsite right on the beach, we didn’t have the best weather but feel it would be lovely with a nice sunset!

A taste of New Zealand . Great spot .Chilled and relaxed. Early wake up call curtesy of the cockerel. Beautiful sunrise on the beach. Has a surf spot vibe. Basic amenities but clean . ( it really depends on what your aiming for and expect) .Overall a great way to spend our last night in NZ before heading home.

Cracking little site, basic but everything you need, clean shower/ toilet block, clean kitchen area and the best bit its right on the beach front. Someone said no WiFi / 4g but we had excellent 4G coverage, made an excellent last night stop of our amazing 3 weeks in NZ. Thoroughly reckon.

Such a nice camping place! Rather small, so either book in advance or come early. 35 $ for 1-2 persons in a campervan without electricity: cheap for an access to all facilities, all clean. Direct access to a large and lovely beach with great views to the ocean. No wifi. Tel signal. No sand flies!

I imagine this camp would be beautiful on a sunny day, Gore bay is a tiny little beach village with beautiful sea views ( more direct views in Main camp than Buxton). Quiet camp with good facilities. Lovely warm shower (plenty of time despite the timer). $40 for a powered site for 2 people, worth it and would visit again if travelling North from Christchurch to break up our drive.
