Bay Of Many Coves Campsite

Bay of Many Coves Campsite is a backcountry DOC campsite situated on the ridgeline between Queen Charlotte Sound/Tōtaranui and Kenepuru Sound in the Marlborough region of New Zealand's South Island.

Set among mānuka and kānuka at approximately 305 metres above sea level, it offers expansive views over the surrounding sounds. Access is via the Queen Charlotte Track on foot or mountain bike only — there is no vehicle access.

Facilities are basic: a long-drop toilet and a cooking shelter. Roof-collected rainwater is available but untreated and may be scarce or absent during summer or drought conditions, so visitors should carry their own water supply.

The site accommodates around six tent sites and operates year-round. It is managed by the Department of Conservation and bookings are required.
