Puriri Bay (Whangaruru North Head) Campsite is a DOC campsite at 1009 Whangaruru North Road in Whangaruru, Northland, in the Whangaruru North Head Scenic Reserve. It overlooks the mouth of Whangaruru Harbour, with sheltered water for swimming and boating and a series of interconnected walks. The hardstand is available for motorhomes and caravans. Fires are not allowed, and dogs are not permitted. Camp hosts are on site from Labour Weekend to the end of April, and there is one ablution block open during the off-season. Bookings are made online, with pay on booking, on arrival to the camp host, or at the self-registration stand. The DOC Campsite Pass can be used here. Booking is needed for peak dates from 1 December to 28 February and for public holiday weekends. The site operates a pack-in, pack-out policy, with no rubbish collection. The public track from Picnic Bay to Puriri Bay is closed due to slip damage. It is 22 kilometres north of Whangārei.
