Beautiful views across to Rakitu Island and Hirakimata (Mt Hobson) in the background, Whangapoua campground is located next to the Whangapoua Estuary and a popular surf break.

Just down the road from the Harataonga Coastal Track, the campground is a great stop for campsite hopping, hiking between Harataonga and Akapoua in Port Fitzroy.

Surfing at Whangapoua beach is not for the faint hearted, so please be careful. A paddle across the estuary is required which can have powerful currents out into the ocean.

Fires are not permitted at any time.
Dogs are not permitted at any DoC campgrounds.
