Herbertville Campground is a campground at 15 Seaview Road in Herbertville, Tararua. It has a 4.5 rating from 123 Google reviews. Its website describes a relaxed campground with kitchen, laundry and ablution facilities, cabins, and powered and unpowered sites. A child's playground is on site, and the beach is a short ride or walk away for fishing, diving or a quiet afternoon.
The website says the village is about 70 kilometres south-east of Waipukurau and 66 kilometres east of Dannevirke. Herbertville has long sandy beaches on both sides of the Wainui River, and the road to the other beach is a metal road of about three kilometres. The Cape Turnagain area is nearby, where there is a seal colony. The site is remote, so fuel, food and supplies are best arranged before you travel. Bring warm layers, since the coast can be windy.
For a quiet seaside campground with a beach on the doorstep in Tararua, this site is a good base for fishing, walks and time away from town.
