Hampden Reserve overlooks the harbour and is just around the corner from the Moeraki Boulders Holiday Park. While overnight parking is not allowed, it is a pleasant location to stop for a lunch break if you're not staying at the holiday park.
I'm guessing that the No Freedom Camping sign was erected by the holiday park rather than the council.

This is a good spot to catch the morning sunrise. There is a playground here, across the road are sheep and llamas. A tennis court and a skateboard ramp. There are toilet facilities. No BBQ. You can walk along the beach to the Moeraki Boulders - 3 hours either side of low tide. Swimming, fishing and surfing type beach. Also leads off into a smooth water lagoon/river suitable for kayaking or SUP. It can be quite popular during school holidays.
