Expect average nightly rates around $25, with a few spots dipping as low as $20. You’ll find reliable power and water, and most hosts let you stoke up a campfire.

We have a well established banana grove which we harvest throughout the year. We are in a relatively quiet space for being just 15 minutes to town center and you'll wake up to rich bird song every morning and fall asleep to the sound of ruru calling from the trees. We are a few minutes to the lovely Pukenui forest reserve, 15 minutes to Parihaka, 20 minutes to Whangārei Falls and Abbey Caves, 35-50 minutes to bay and open ocean beaches. LGBTQIA2SP+ friendly!

Weekend Trip to Lekker Stay Camping Sites

We had a great camping stay at Lekker Stay, thanks Magda! The site is well located ons the intersection of two main roads within Whangarei Heads, close to the shops. The site had all the amenities we needed for camping comfortably. The hosts and their two dogs were very friendly! Recommend Magda’s place to anyone else and will be staying there again in the future.
