Good spot by the lake. We stayed here in our self contained vehicle for one night. At around 10pm a car of disenchanted youths arrived to drink and smoke weed, and whilst they were not too disruptive to us, they did smash some bottles, left a mess and drove off drunk and high. Of course, the freedom campers will get the blame for the mess, as is much the case across NZ - locals refuse to accept that many of the issues with environmental respect lies within their own community and not with self contained van folk.

Stunning view and drive. on the way to Akaroa. no reception out here so plan ahead. the freedom camp is quite large and the few times i went there, was less than 5 cars there so I think it should be sweet to arrive at any time. i highly recommmend carrying on to Akaroa though, but its harder to camp there maybe.

Free and close to Christchurch but not super nice. The lake was foamy and had a moderate toxic algae warning and an unpleasant smell. Lots of waterfowl which were gorgeous and chatty. We also made the mistake of leaving the window open at night with the light on. So many bugs were in our campervan.

Great peaceful bay that caters for freedom campers and home to ducks and geese. Nice and picturesque.

Nice view before go to Akaroa. There was a public toilet without water. Just cross a small wooden bridge.
