★ ★ ★ ★ ★ We biked there along the gravel road to the mouth of the Wairau Diversion River. It's a beautiful place. Public toilet facilities are available there. Freedom camping is available for self-contained vehicles under the pine trees.

Not worth visiting.
If you need a freedom Campsite might be worth making the effort.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Nice spot for a day visit - for us.
Fishing was average - a local told me that the place hasn't been the same after the earthquake, fish are very scarce in this spot... Bar mouth has changed and water flow is erratic - looks vastly different than that of the satellite image.
Seals around on that day too.
Keep in mind no amenities or services in this area and its a fair drive out...

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ A nice place to walk your dogs or take a walk in general. It's nice and quiet here for the most part, although on weekends there may be motorcross riders here. You can fish down by the river mouth for Kawhai.
Except between like August and November, when the place gets overrun by older whitebaiters who set up camp here for months on end, and sell their catch for profit. They spoil it.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ The diversion is the river which used to flood as it meandered it's way more to the south.
The river mouth is now known for fishing.
I saw several fish jump probably being chased by king fish.
Fishing on both sides. Fishers and shags .(birds)
Pine trees provide shade and there is a toilet block on the north side.
The Wairau river travels a long way to the sea and boats going out to Cloudy Bay head out through the mouth.
Worth watching.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Great spot for freedom camping. Plenty of flat space near the river mouth with designated areas. Toilets are ok. Area is very tranquil with lots of birdlike around.
