Davies Bay Campsite
Davies Bay Campsite
Davies Bay Campsite is a DOC-managed campground situated at Grove Arm in Queen Charlotte Sound (Tōtaranui), Marlborough, on New Zealand's South Island.
It sits at sea level near the Queen Charlotte Track and accommodates approximately 25 tent sites, with a cooking shelter and toilet facilities on site.
Access is by boat or on foot — roughly a 40-minute walk from Anakiwa, or just a couple of minutes off the main track. The bay features shallow water and a small beach with picnic tables.
Water is generally available but should be treated, boiled, or filtered before drinking, and may run out during dry periods. Fires are not permitted at any time.
Advance booking is strongly recommended, particularly over the peak summer period from December through February and on public holiday weekends.
