Ok place to spend one night but be aware that locals come to drift, play with fireworks untill late and honestly we didn't feel much welcomed. There are toilets with cold showers open untill 8.30 pm (they closed during the night and open around 6.30 am) and there was also another bathroom 5 min walking also closed during the night. There is a lot of space for parking but some parking spots were covered by sand dunes. Love NZ ❤️
We stayed here start of October. It's a popular beach with beach toilets which were basic, not very clean but also didn't shut overnight when we stayed. We had a grumpy neighbour who was trying to sleep at 4pm. Sunset was nice.
Nice place! But unfortunately the toilets are closed at night..
Seemed to be lots of people drinking and racing around in cars so we left
nice sea view and clean toilets. only downside is there will be cars revving, doing donuts, shining their headlights at the vans sleeping there. there were about 6-8 other vans with us so there was no need for us to feel unsafe! overall, still an ok place to camp for the night. (as of Aug 2026)
Toilets open until 8:30 PM. Portaloos is right next door. Quiet tonight, just a few cars passing by.
Nice campsite. Lots of space and very quiet at night. Lots of motorcycles driving around in the day. Unfortunately toilets and showers close for winter, but they have porta loos and other toilets around a 5min walk away.
Nice place, spaces on 4 rows of parking (yellow marks). Beautiful sunset on the sea, safe and quiet at night. Toilets with tap and toilet paper a few steps away. Good phone signal.
Great spot, plenty of space, flat. Toilets and cold showers
Nice campsite right by the beach. Lots of parking spot with toilets nearby, however they are closed overnight!
