Kia ora - welcome

Whangarei District will pleasantly surprise you. Unspoilt landscapes, truly spectacular coastline and variety plus. A space to experience adventure, warmth, culture, excitement and peace. The perfect place to revive, to breathe, to reconnect. That's why we love it here.

Just two hours from Auckland, our sub tropical region is the perfect base to explore the rest of Northland - you may never want to leave.
