Are we too harsh on freedom campers?
Hi neighbours - freedom campers visiting Kaikōura this summer will be banned from popular sites and will face fines for poor behaviour under a new bylaw.
850 people signed a petition calling for the removal of council-designated preferred camping sites following a chaotic summer. The bylaw would ban camping at spots like Kiwa Rd in Mangāmāunu, and in the Kaikōura township.
Did you sign the petition? Or do you think we're being too harsh on freedom campers?

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”
We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
