I took a coach load of New Zealanders there, a lot with a farming back ground. It was so good to see the family working as a team what a delight. Close up action for all to experience, everyone came away with a big smile and talked about it for days. Thank you for the lovley Morning tea. Truly a wonderful visit.

This was one of my favourite places to visit while growing up. My family would go swimming and fishing here, for walks around the rock pools, shell collecting at Mahunga beach, and fish n chips at Mahia Beach. I love seeing the bach's with their characteristics.
