4km north of Opononi turn off SHwy12 onto Koutu Loop Road. The camping and picnic area is 3km from the highway. This is no frills camping on a grassy plateau, surrounded on 3 sides by the Hokianga Harbour, with superb views. You will need to be fully self-contained as the only facilities are some picnic tables. There is no water, or power but there is a long drop toilet. There is a boat ramp nearby. Big area of sites. Sid and Donna live at 825 Koutu Loop Rd which is the first house on the road from the main road.
