Check-Ins

great place for an overnight. I've been here many times before. there is a 7/11 on the corner. it's been safe and quiet.

Small hise available and a bigger hose also near the gas pump

This is in the middle of nowhere. Not a place to sleep. Don’t go here.

Level grass area next to small dirt road.

On the way to Gorkha this side track leads to the Manakamana Temple. It is an important hindu 'wish' temple with good view on a clear day. The side track can be found on MapsMe.
The track to the temple is rough and it is best to have a 4x4, but you can reach this camp spot without 4x4.

There is some smal villages near-by but only few people drove/walked by.
We cleaned a bit of garbage.

Further on (around 4 km) the road cross a small stream (probably more like a river in summer). Here it also looked possible to free camp. The road going up from the stream to the temple is a lot more rough then the first part. It is here you need the 4x4.

Tried to find this spot but the gate is closed

water out of a short , big hose , not that easy to fill in. smells good , also good pressure. there are also showers where you can try to put on a hose.

Still open, I made my tent here, the host was so friendly ! And it’s in the road of Dakar

Still a great place to eat. We loved the veg. tagine. They brew their own beer which is very welcome after the watery Beninoise. Also filter coffee available.

Museum about the history and different ethnicities of the whole region. 1500cfa per person for foreigners. They will show you the different scarves of the different ethnicities. Guide speaks French only. Guide Paterne showed us around, he spoke very slowly French.

Atchafalaya themed rest area, with lots of tourist information about the region. We asked to make sure we could stay the night, they said yes, but they don't want to compete with surroundings campgrounds. I took that as meaning to not squat there.

As others have noted, 24h restrooms and free coffee when the visitor center is open.

Stayed one night in my Kia Sedona minivan with no problems. 3 night maximum, but I’d probably only do 1 night as there isn’t any real dedicated camping spots. They also either took down the Christmas lights that everyone mentioned or they did not turn them on the night I was here which was a bummer as that was the main reason I picked this spot as I slowly make my way to Big Bend. All in all though a good stop for a night. Town has a little grocery store and some restaurants and after 10 it was nice and quiet.

Small free parking lot. Quite and safe area. Nobody bothered me.

Water faucet good to fill up bottles and tanks! The pressure is good and if you have a hose you can park right next to it and fill your tank.

There are several public parking spots along the Avenida del Mar in Maitencillo. During the day, in the high season they might charge you. I understand that it is ok to stay there. We saw several RVs and trailers. We stood 2 nights. The sound of the waves is amazing. The road is quiet after midnight. There are no services at all. If you need a toilete or a shower you can walk to the fisherman marker.

This place is open and still there. Closed on Thursdays.

This is not a border to try late in the day - I arrived about 3:30pm and they tried to tell me it was too late already. After some discussion they did let me through though.

I didn’t have any issue with them asking me for photocopying and they were all very kind and friendly.

Still good - very kind people who were happy to let me stay.

Fill your gas bottle here. We left the bottle here for 2 hours.

They fill butane for 500 Dalasi for 5kg. For swiss bottle don't need a Adapter.

Camped here for the night while cycling through Belize. Charge for camping is just BZD20 for two people in one tent.
Lovely spot by the river, good restaurant and a short walk into town

Nice meadow surrounded by trees for wind shelter. Access is easy, no 4x4 needed. Very quiet. Good 4G signal (but not as good as downtown).

The people from the histeria nearby Sr every lovable and they make you take a shower for free.

Many 🐧🐧🐧 you see on the island! Beautiful to see so many 🐧🐧🐧 at the view point Halifax!

We seeing many dolfins playing in the water before the beach in the morning! Worth to see this!

Very good 🍣🍣🍣 they make it fresh!
When you want to fish here 🎣 in the area you must have a permit ➡️ by ministry of fisheries (with building) it cost N$ 14.00 it is very cheap!

Very good appelstrudel with koffie and tea!
Nice camping, toilet (no toilet paper) and shower are clean with mirror! Hot water shower. You can sleep at the ⚪️ houses it looking fun but inside are very clean too!
The owner very nice and have chat with us

There is shade by tree and asbin. There is a swimmingpool
You must come to this place it shall surprise you! The owner has is heart and soul in this place N$180ppnp for camping place

A running family restaurant in an big blue house. It’s open from Wednesday to Saturday til 9pm. You sit in the garage and see the owner during cooking. She is sooo friendly, the food very delicious and the prices are really fair and cheap. Very good quality!

Did everything in 1 hour. Depends for sure to the people in duty if they want to check really everything or just a short look in the car. We were lucky. Had asked for just 90 days though...

Stayed here last night. A few cars came and went and parked the boat launch between 1am-3am. Looked like mostly kids going to walk around and dip their feet into the water and a few people launching their boats for some night fishing.

No one bothered me and it is quite pretty here in the morning. Pretty popular area, lots of boaters here in the AM in March. Lots of signs here, but only one says “no camping allowed (“tents, trailers, RVs”, I posted a picture of the signs). It sounds like this means you’re not allowed to set up shop here and make this place your campsite for days on end, as if it were a campground. Since there are no “no overnight parking” signs, it seems like you’re allowed to park here if you just need a place to crash for a night. I would stay here again if needed

Stayed a couple nights and saw others as well. got a knock on the third night. Big Lots down the street is another decent alternative.
