Owhiro Bay Freedom Camping

Owhiro Bay Freedom Camping sits at 176 Owhiro Bay Parade on Wellington's south coast, near Te Kopahou Reserve, offering beachfront views over the sea.

Wellington City Council designates 16 marked freedom camping parks here, with a maximum stay of four nights per calendar month. The site is restricted to certified self-contained vehicles only, and vehicles over 6 metres are not permitted.

On-site amenities include public toilets, drinking water, and rubbish bins. From the bay, a coastal walk extends along the shoreline, eventually reaching Makara some 30 kilometres away.
