Powered and Tent Sites
Enjoy a relaxed Hawke’s Bay holiday at Havelock North Holiday Park. Our grassed powered and non-powered campsites are spread throughout the park in a rural setting, with many enjoying views of Te Mata Peak.
Spend your days enjoying the pool and hydroslides, let the kids burn off energy on the playground and bouncy pillow, then settle in for a BBQ back at camp. With modern shared facilities and plenty to explore nearby, it’s an ideal base for couples, families and friends.
Powered & Non Powered Camp Site Information
With around 68 grassed powered campsites spread throughout the park, we’re a popular choice for Kiwis and visitors alike. Powered camping areas range from 8 to 20 sites, with individual sites approximately 10m × 10m, suitable for tents, caravans, campervans and motorhomes.
Our smaller camping areas are a great option for holidays with friends or family. For smaller groups, please include all your sites in one booking so we can arrange them together as best as we can. For larger groups wanting to be together, please email us beforehand to discuss availability and arrangements, especially during peak periods.
Non powered sites are all grassed sites and are spread throughout the park, including our Poolside & Playground camping area—a favourite with families wanting to be near the pool and play areas. These sites can book out early, particularly during peak periods.
All camping guests have access to potable water, waste disposal and our park facilities, including the recently upgraded shared kitchen and bathrooms.
Non Powered sites are suitable for tents and non powered vehicles
