Location and camping character
Peketā Campground is the SH1 coastal property outside Kaikoura, also found under the older Kaikoura Peketa Beach name. The directory describes mountain and sea views, camping categories, cabins, mini golf and a playground. South Bay's boat-launching facilities are a separate nearby destination. The checked sources give the address as 665 State Highway 1, Peketā, Kaikoura. Use that address and the park's arrival instructions, rather than choosing an entrance from the nearest map pin.
Choose the right stay
Do not infer a boat ramp is inside the campground from the South Bay reference. Check local marine-wildlife guidance before approaching seals or planning beach activities. Pets are by arrangement; request approval for the correct site and dates before including a dog in your trip.
