Ward Beach, Ward 7285, Marlborough, New Zealand
Ward Beach is a quiet location where overnight parking has been made available by Herb and Pip Thompson, the local land owners.
There is a public beach access parking area, with a rather basic toilet. The Chancet Park overnight parking area was set up for members of the NZ Motor Caravanners Association, but it is also available to anyone with a self-contained van. It has obviously been well used, as there is an interesting collection of message stones at the entrance.
There is a small cost for staying overnight.
