River-mouth holiday park with powered and non-powered pitches, shared amenities and seasonal dog restrictions.
Match a numbered pitch to your setup
Onaero Bay's listing separates powered pitches from grassed unpowered areas near the beach. The park occupies both sides of the river, so look at the actual pitch description when deciding whether the location suits your group. Tell the operator about your vehicle and any awning before confirming. A general camping category does not guarantee the same position or access arrangement as another numbered site.
Prepare for limited reception
The operator warns that phone reception is limited. Save your reservation, chosen site details and arrival instructions before the drive, and agree on meeting arrangements with anyone travelling separately. Shared cooking facilities, showers, toilets and laundry are listed, but their listing does not establish every appliance, payment method or drinking-water treatment. Ask about the details that affect your packing and carry an initial drinking-water supply.
Check the season for dogs and prices
Dogs are excluded from the end of Labour Weekend until the start of Easter under the published park rule, with welcome outside that period. Check stays crossing the boundary rather than assuming an arrival date covers the whole visit. The listed unpowered rate is an adult nightly amount; obtain a complete quote for children, extras and your dates. Assess river and beach conditions separately from the camping booking.
Check the official campsite information for current restrictions, facilities and booking arrangements.
