Awaroa/Godley Head Campsite
Awaroa/Godley Head Campsite
Awaroa/Godley Head Campsite is a Department of Conservation campground situated on the Godley Head peninsula, roughly 5 km from Taylors Mistake near the Christchurch suburb of Sumner in Canterbury.
The site occupies a historic WWII defence battery, offering sweeping ocean views and access to several scenic coastal walks. The campground has 25 unpowered sites suitable for tents, campervans, motorhomes, and caravans.
Facilities include flushing toilets and drinking water. Fires are not permitted at any time, dogs must be kept on a leash, and a caretaker is on-site. Advance booking is required, and a gate combination code is provided upon confirmation.
The sealed access road from Sumner via Wakefield Avenue and Evans Pass Road is narrow with sharp corners and steep drop-offs, so careful driving is essential.
