its own water treatment station. There are 93 level sites, all with power. The

An historic coastal wilderness camp, accessible from Auckland via Titirangi and Huia, and within the bounds of the Waitakere Ranges Regional Park. Turn right at Little Huia, and follow the winding road (partly unsealed) that leads
to Whatipu Lodge. Apart from the guest accommodation there is lots of space, no trees, and no power for the intrepid camper. You will have to be independent, as a minimal number of cold-water showers and toilets are the only camp amenities. Preferably bring your own drinking water. Fishing and walks are the major attraction here. Petrol is a 20 km drive away. Your host is Wayne.
