Woolleys Bay Car Park

Woolleys Bay Western Car Park is a freedom camping area on the Tutukaka Coast in Northland, managed by the Whangarei District Council.

Tucked behind the dunes with the beach just a short walk away, the site has a sheltered, enclosed feel thanks to the surrounding cliffs, making it well suited for swimming and paddleboarding.

Designated freedom camping spaces are limited and a maximum stay of one night applies. The site is closed to campers each year between 18 December and 8 February, remaining open to day visitors only during that period.

It serves as a handy base for exploring the broader Tutukaka region, including nearby snorkelling spots and Whale Bay.
