We thought it was too windy to go boating but there is always a sheltered spot on that Harbour. You have to see it-dynamic history, dramatic scenery and stunning nature. The crew were friendly, obliging and very knowledgeable. Loved it! Certainly the highlight of our stay at Whangaroa

All of the bays around this area are breath taking. We are kiwis but felt as if we had gone overseas. Found a perfect freedom camping site at Woolley Bay on Christmas Day. All sites are clearly marked and so well organised by local council. Great options for calm waters and surf beaches all within a short drive.

Beautiful fresh water lake with golden Sandy beach. You can wade out 50-60m into the shallows and just be mesmerised by how clear the water is and how the light bounces through it. Really great spot for a picnic and there’s an outdoor play area for the kids. You’ll feel like you’ve missed out if you don’t check this out whilst on holiday in the area.
