About the campsite:

The camping area is flat and open, allowing campervans and motorhomes to park comfortably behind the dunes with natural shelter from wind. As a freedom camping site, facilities are minimal, so travellers should arrive fully self contained and prepared. The nearby beach offers long walking routes, driftwood scattered shorelines and strong ocean views. Sunset conditions are especially striking, with changing colours across the Tasman Sea providing memorable evening scenery. The surrounding area also offers access to Westport services and coastal drives.
