Kiwanis Camp at Huia, Waitākere Ranges Regional Park
Kiwanis Camp offers easy access to a safe beach at Huia Bay and is a great base from which to explore breathtaking Whatipū.
Sleeping up to 45 people in total, the camp includes one three-bedroom house (Hinge house) and three stand-alone chalets with their own lounge areas.
The kitchen-dining area and the shower facility block occupy each a separate building.
A large outdoor courtyard offers great views over the Manukau Harbour.
The lodge can also be booked in conjunction with Huia Lodge (which sleeps up to 30 people).
Note: This lodge has a noise curfew of 10pm. In the event of a security company call out, the group organiser will be held responsible for the cost of the call out.
