Anaura Bay Motor Camp is right on the beach front in a beautiful location. Far off the main road, it is peaceful, and with good facilities.

 

We stumbled on this campsite on the way to checking out the DOC campsite further down Anaura Road. This is a great alternative, especially if you prefer to have shower and toilet facilities.

 

The campsite is spacious, with plenty of room for large vans. The facilities are basic but clean and well maintained. 

 

There is a memorial just next to the campsite that commemorates Captain Cook, and the crew of the Endevour, being welcomed by the people of the Ngati Wakarara tribe in 1769.

 

This is one of the nicest campsites we've seen around the East Cape, and in a really beautiful beach location. It's not up-market like the Top 10 holiday parks, but very comfortable, and in a great location.
