Camp Adair, operated by the YMCA, sits alongside the Wairoa River south of Auckland and is considered one of New Zealand's oldest and largest camps.

The facility has provided outdoor recreational and camp experiences to more than 10,000 school children and families over the years, and continues to host holiday camps, group bookings, and environmental education programmes.

The Wairoa River is central to the camp's character, though it also brought significant challenges when Cyclone Gabrielle caused the river to burst its banks, destroying the camp's bridge, fences, and several buildings.

Recovery and conservation efforts have since been underway. The Y Camp Adair also runs "Nature's Classroom," an environmental education programme developed in collaboration with Counties Energy.
