Moana Roa Recreational Reserve is a freedom camping area situated on the Waikato River near Lake Kārapiro, accessed via State Highway 1 roughly between Rotorua and Hamilton in the Waikato region.

The site is managed by Waipa District Council and accommodates up to 15 campervans per night, with a maximum stay of two consecutive nights for contained camping. Conventional overnight camping is not permitted.

The reserve is set up primarily around boating and water skiing activity on the river. Reviewers note some road noise due to the state highway proximity.

Self-contained vehicles with a valid Warrant of Fitness certification can stay free of charge under New Zealand's freedom camping rules.
