About this campsite

Free non-self-contained campground at Kaiaua Boat Club on the Firth of Thames, Waikato, with two-night maximum stay and basic boat ramp access.

Kaiaua Boat Club operates a free campground for non-self-contained vehicles in the Waikato region, situated along the southern Firth of Thames coast. The site is subject to Hauraki District Council freedom camping regulations, which permit a maximum two-night stay within any calendar month and require dogs to be kept on leads. Located on East Coast Road in Kaiaua, the campground provides access to the boat ramp and coastal area known for its proximity to significant migratory shorebird habitats. As a basic freedom camping area with no specified facilities, visitors should come prepared with self-sufficient camping equipment and confirm current conditions with the boat club before arrival.
