Information

Harataonga Campsite

A sheltered campground close to Harataonga Beach for snorkeling and swimming, and the Harataonga coastal walkway.

You cover alot of gravel road to get here, including a winding entry into the bay, but this campsite is nestled in a fantastic location. The white sand Harataonga beach is only a hop, skip and a jump away.
Great Barrier Island free of rats, mustalids, hedgehogs and possums, but has ship rats and mice. Argentine ants are also not welcome - please check your gear, boats, kayaks for these pests and destroy any ants you find. Kauri dieback disease is present. Keep to the defined tracks, clean your footwear before and after visiting kauri forest areas, and stay away from kauri tree roots.

    Absolutely fantastic doc camp-ground.

    Lovely stream with ducks right outside your tent. Short walk to the beach and located at the start of the picturesque coastal walk.

    Back to basic on this fabulous DOC site.

    A 2.5 km dirt road leads us to a beautiful campground, close to an amazing beach. The only sound we hear are the birds and the waves in the far distance. The limited facilities are clean and we probable picked the best place, with views to the bay.
