All of it. It had displays of all sorts of periods from early Maori to Dally gum diggers to swamp kauri recovery to world wars displays to the french terrorists in NZ. A great museum. Well worth the entry fee. Allow a good bit of time--it is much bigger than you might think !

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.

An amazing 30 minute walk through a beautiful Kauri forest park. The path meanders through the park past hundreds of beautiful Kauri trees, but also, very sadly, past a number of trees dying from Kauri Die Back.

Excellent. This is right word for this beach. Simple but spacious with fine pure brownish white sand without gravel. A very nice place to relax stroll including dog walking, stretches for miles along the beach. It is also a longest driveable beach, a part of 107 km long beach from Maunganui Bluf to Pouto, visitors are able to drive 4WD vehicles or motorcycles by applying Road Code Rules. A bit short distance from the village centre, still in walking distance, there are several track walks available to access the beach.
