Reviews

A small campsite with kitchen building and toilets. Getting to it from Awaroa Lodge the short way involves getting wet from between your ankles to your waist depending on the tide. The short way is about 20 minutes walk. The longer way is about 1 hr 30 min walk. I definitely recommend staying at Awaroa Lodge, beach, or the pizza/bar place beside Awaroa Lodge for as long as possible, and just make your way to the campsite when you need to.
