About nearby results

Nearby calculations stay in this page's memory. Your precise browser location is not stored or added to links. Leaving or reloading clears it. When opened, the map fetches OpenStreetMap tiles for the visible area. Distances are straight-line estimates to reference points, not driving distances, track lengths or verified entrances. Town references are approximate locality centres, not your position. Not a navigation tool. 36 of 46 campsites have checked reference points. Parks without a checked point remain in the directory but cannot match a distance radius. Pine Beach and Promenade Point share an approximate Lake Taharoa point.

Where this selection covers

Published Northland campsite records across the region, not just the Bay of Islands. Pine Beach and Promenade Point are separate campground records sharing the Lake Taharoa guide; their facilities and prices must not be merged.

46 published campground records. Facilities and prices on the cards are dated source records, not live vacancies. Unknown means unverified, not absent. Read the notes and confirm with the operator before booking.

Search all campsitesConditions and official alerts

Compare facilities at the named campground

At Lake Taharoa, council lists powered camping and showers at Pine Beach, while Promenade Point is non-powered without showers. Choose the campground, not just the lake name.

Check water and pet arrangements individually

Kai Iwi Lakes requires campers to bring drinking water and prohibits pets, subject to specified assistance or public-service dog arrangements. Do not transfer those rules, or another site's pet permission, to all Northland camps.

Regional source checks

Selection context checked 12 October 2026. Individual campsite checks retain the dates shown on their cards; this is not a fresh audit of every facility or tariff.
