Good campsite, if you have to catch the ferry early the next day, 2 toilets available, the spots were taken quickly, you should arrive before 4β―p.m.
Amazing site, especially for a city like Wellington! As others have said it does get full up quickly. We arrived around 1230pm, and there were maybe 5/6 spots left, all gone by the time we returned from a cafe maybe an hour later. Toilets were clean and well maintained. Slightly far from the CBD, but easily able to get a bus or ride share into/from town, or like us do a hike across the Southern Walkway for nature and views.
Stayed several nights. From what I witnessed, first thing in morning - HEAPS of spaces, around lunchtime, maybe 2/3rds full. By 4pm theres only a couple of spaces left. Super convenient location. Walking distance to shops and laundry and also bus stop to go into the city. The toilets are fine - they do get a bit messy as the day goes on but with such a busy site its expected. Some of the parking spots are wider than the others so if you can, try and get one of those and be mindful when opening your doors with such strong winds they can be ripped out of your hand. Good phone reception (spark) For any vegans/vegetarians, the Asian Supermarket next to pak n save has a HUGE variety of vegan meat replacements with dried, vac packed and frozen options available. All in all, a very good site and I will be back.
Was already full when we arrived, as well as the paid parking lot in the city. Went down south to the visitor center and stayed the night there. Make sure you drive all the way through to the freedom campsite
Great for leaving the van while you take time to discover the city but arrive before 3 pm because it fills up quickly. Lots of spots but packed close together. Toilet 24/24h
Lots of spots, but make sure you get here early (before 6pm ideally). It was frustrating to see many small vans taking spots designed for large campers when there were still small spots. Public toilets were clean and itβs a nice spot to walk around the waterfront.
We arrived at 17:30 and was full. Defo isnβt 50 spots, looks more about 30 which is still great but not ideal given limited options in the city.
The spots get taken quickly, so come in good time! But otherwise a really cozy place, with nice toilets available. We stayed for 2 nights, and it's perfect if you have to take the ferry.
#14&15 plenty of space, good toilets, water fountain
Spots that fill up quickly if you arrive late A bit noisy because it's next to the road but it does the job for one night Clean toilets
