Freedom camping vehicles tend to take up more space than a regular vehicle, and when they stay at a popular location for several days it compounds problems for other visitors.
Freedom camping will be prohibited at Whangaumu Wellingtons Bay, Kowharewarewa Bay, Matapōuri (Wehiwehi Road), Woolleys Bay and Sandy Bay, from 18 December 2022 until 8 February 2023.

🌧️ November rainfall maps
November was WET. Another damp and muggy month.
🌡️ Daily maximum temperatures were relatively constant, with daily highs most days sitting in the low to mid 20s and a few days going to 25 degrees. In central Whangārei, temperatures never went below 10 degrees.
⬆️ The highest monthly total was at Hātea Glenbervie Forest HQ, where 425mm was recorded.
⬇️ On the low side, 107mm was recorded at Kai Iwi Lakes.
November in Northland usually produces an expected rainfall of around 78mm. With the average accumulated total being 241mm, this is 314% of what we would expect! (over 3 times the expected November rain)

For only $40 you can donate a Christmas Box to a family in need, providing not just practical help, but much deserved hope too.
