THINGS YOU NEED TO KNOW

: There is limited parking at the tent site. Parking is available a short distance away in the public parking area of the camp. This makes for a much more pleasant camping area when cars are only used to drop off gear and are otherwise left elsewhere. We appreciate your co-operation.

: We recycle most waste and expect guests to separate food, aluminum cans, tin cans, plastic bottles, glass bottles and place into the designated containers.

: Wainui Park provides stoves, coolers, freezers, microwaves, and toasters. Guests are expected to bring all other kitchen utensils, appliances, crockery, and cutlery.

: Are available from Duvauchelle Store (15mins drive) or Akaroa (30mins drive).

: Cell phone coverage is limited. Vodafone/One NZ is by far the best, Spark can be sporadic and 2degrees is not available at the camp site at all.

: Dogs are permitted only in the tent site area and only if they are well controlled by owners. They must not harass any other people or animals. Owners must dispose of all fouling appropriately. Cats are not permitted.

: The Kind Foundation wishes to encourage healthy habits. Alcohol consumption must not impact on other users of the camp. Camp Staff will ask persons using illegal drugs to leave without refund. Please note that Wainui Park is now 100% smokefree/vape free.
