Karikari Peninsula camping near Perehipe Beach, with sheltered grass sites and separate hard sites for touring vehicles.

Perehipe Beach and the Gums area

Whatuwhiwhi is on the Karikari Peninsula, close to Perehipe Beach. Within the park, the Gums camping area sits across a stream, with trees around the grass pitches. The operator distinguishes these sites from the central powered area, where concrete pitches cater for campervans and caravans. Choose the part of the park that suits your shelter and surface preferences.

Match the pitch to your setup

Tents must not use the powered hard sites. Tell reception whether you are bringing a tent, caravan or campervan so the allocation fits. Campers share showers, toilets, a kitchen and laundry; fish-cleaning and boat-washing facilities are also listed. The park does not accept arrivals on Christmas Day or New Year's Day.

Check current site availability, arrival instructions and the full quote with Whatuwhiwhi TOP 10 Holiday Park before travelling.
