Awaroa Campsite
Awaroa Campsite
Awaroa Campsite sits beside a tidal estuary on the Abel Tasman Coast Track within Abel Tasman National Park, in New Zealand's Nelson/Tasman region. It enjoys good winter sun and is managed by the Department of Conservation, with bookings required through DOC.
The site accommodates up to 100 campers and includes hand-washing sinks and a fireplace, though the fireplace is frequently closed due to fire danger. The surrounding Awaroa Inlet is a scenic tidal estuary with golden sandbars that shift with the tides.
Travellers should note that the coastal track north of Awaroa can only be crossed on foot within roughly two hours either side of low tide, making tide awareness essential for anyone passing through.
