Petit camping gratuit en face de la mer, sur un parking, très calme. Seuls 2 endroits désignés au fond du parking, pour les véhicules certifiés. Les endroits situés derrière la boîte à sable si bien protégés en cas de vents forts venant de la mer. Les toilettes sur le parking, neuf et propre avec également 2 douches de plage. Les 4 toilettes à l'intérieur du bâtiment sont fermées la nuit, mais celle à l'extérieur reste ouverte, ainsi que les douches si nécessaire.

L'endroit où j'aime le calme et le calme

This is a really great spot. Only two official freedom camper spaces but, as others have said, there were a number of vans there before us and were still there when we left. We kept to the 24 hour limit rule. We were there for just after midday and were lucky to get the second designated parking bay. Absolutely spotless loos and showers. It’s an easy 5 minute walk along the beach to The Longbeach Tavern - a really great bar/restaurant with a lovely courtyard and fabulous garden.

Arrived at 6pm on a Sunday and both freedom spots (marked by the parking sign) were available, although some people had parked in non-designated areas. That said, it didn’t seem to be a problem, as nobody came around to check the vehicle limits. The site remained quiet all night. The bathroom was also locked around 8pm and from other reviews, there’s apparently a 24/7 restroom but I must have missed it. Lovely spot overall!

Great little spot. Nice clean toilets open 24hrs, fresh water, lovely beach. 10 minute walk along beach to 4 square and lovely cafes and play ground. It was pretty busy. I believe only 2 campers allowed but there were atleast 10 the night we stayed with no issues

Many thanks to the local council for the quiet, clean, and well-maintained campsite. The sanitary facilities are excellent, and one toilet is open 24/7. The beach is right behind the dunes and is very wide and shallow.

Very nice campsite, nice toilets, open 24/7, legally just 3 vehicles allowed but many more stayed there without an issue. Nice beach.

Excellent free campsite with all the necessary facilities (2 showers, toilets, drinking water). Very good phone signal! Beach is a 30-second walk away. If all free campsites could be like this, it would be fantastic!

This is the best free campsite I've been to in the North Island with a bathroom. It has 5 bathrooms, water facilities, and the beach is right in front.

Very windy spot. Quiet and bathrooms are open all night and pretty clean. Open cold showers available (to shower with a swimsuit on) There were more than two camper van parked overnight as there was not a limited spot to park in.
