East Cape Campsite

East Cape Campsite occupies a coastal paddock above the beach near Te Araroa, approximately 15 kilometres from the main junction along partly sealed and gravel roads. The site welcomes tent campers, caravans and pets, with basic facilities including toilets. As a remote back-blocks location, it suits self-contained campers seeking a simple coastal stopover with ocean views and the sound of crashing waves. The site lies close to the East Cape lighthouse and Waipapa Stream. Fees are collected via an onsite honesty box, cash only. Visitors should contact the operator directly to confirm current facilities, access conditions and rates before travelling.
