PUHOI & MAHURANGI WEST Puhoi was founded in 1863 when European settlers from Bohemia arrived at the mouth of the Puhoi River and established a vibrant community that is still thriving today. Puhoi is a beautiful and relaxing village brimming with Bohemian history and small-town charm. Heritage sites are still present in the village, including a church, hotel, library and wharf, and the Puhoi Heritage Museum documents the history of the village.

Approximately 30 minutes north of the city of Auckland, the village is the gateway to much of the 900-acre Mahurangi Regional Park, from Wenderholm to Mahurangi West.

Visitors to Puhoi can spend the day kayaking, canoeing or exploring nearby Mahurangi Regional Park’s beautiful beaches and walks. Puhoi is also known for its historic pub, award-winning cheese café and a monthly farmers’ market.

A DAY OUT IN PUHOI & MAHURANGI WEST

PACIFIC ENVIRONMENTS - ARCHITECTS New Zealand’s incredible coastlines are ideal for living and holidaying beside the sea; however, designing for this environment also has its challenges. Strong ocean breezes, micro-climates and the eroding capabilities of salt are just some of the factors that need to be considered when planning a new home or renovation. Pacific Environments is an architectural practice with substantial experience in designing for coastal living.

They harness what nature provides and through clever design, maximise durability and liveability to create beautiful and comfortable homes.

Located on the Matakana Coast, the home pictured above is a perfect example of relaxed, coastal living. The elements are intended to be experienced and felt, yet controlled as needed. Open plan living spaces and sheltered courtyards, allow the family to bask in the sunshine all year round, or cozy up on an armchair and watch the weather brew outside.

KAWAU ISLAND Once the private retreat of the former Governor of New Zealand, Sir George Grey, Kawau Island offers respite from the busy city even today! Kawau Island holds its annual Music in the Garden event in the summer and is a wonderful way to enjoy the island. Visitors can cruise by ferry or water taxi from the Sandspit Wharf daily and spend a day exploring the island.

The Mansion House offers a historic look into the Victorian era and features two walks to the remnants of the copper mining industry present on the island during this period.

MATAKANA An hour north of Auckland is the bustling village of Matakana, a top destination for busy city dwellers. Perched on the banks of the Matakana River, the village is known for its Saturday Farmers’ Market, brimming with local, fresh produce and specialty foods, as well as a range of boutique shops.

Matakana is host to some of the most beautiful beaches on the east coast, a thriving art scene and an impressive collection of award-winning wineries. A day spent amongst the charms of Matakana and the Matakana Coast never disappoints. Settled in the 1840s, Matakana was known for its sawmill, brickworks, creamery and farms until Morris and James founder, Anthony Morris, started making pottery near the old brickworks, ushering in the arts to the area.

Photo: Louise M Photography

WELLSFORD, TE HANA & KAIWAKA Sitting on the edge of the Rodney District and the path to the Kaipara Harbour, the small farming communities of Wellsford, Te Hana and Kaiwaka leave visitors with plenty of room to breathe. There are numerous charming eateries along State Highway 1 and a few museums to explore and stretch your legs from the car ride.

Te Hana furnishes the curious with an authentic Maori experience with its Cultural Centre and Te Ao Marama Maori 17th-century pa. Kaiwaka, “the little town of lights”, provides a charming cheese factory and an Italian bakery among its several cafés.

Photo: Katherine Norman

A DAY OUT IN WELLSFORD, TE HANA & KAIWAKA Morning – Start your day off with a vigorous hike up to the Dome Valley lookout or further, depending on how your legs feel! Take a trip out to The Kauri Museum, with exhibits that tell the story of the pioneering days when early European settlers in the area extracted kauri timber and kauri gum.

Afternoon – Embrace the cultural experience of a Maori performance and tour through Te Ao Marama Maori papakainga and pa.

Evening – Kawaika lights up as the sun goes down. Stop at the cheese factory for something to complement your bottle of wine, and see why this little town is called “the little town of lights”.

MANGAWHAI Mangawhai’s stunning beaches and bush were once the first stopping ground for Maori and Europeans trying to reach the Kaipara Harbour. Mangawhai has continued to flourish and has now grown to become one of the top holiday destinations in the area. Sailing, fishing, surfing, kayaking or anything else you can do on the water are all possible in Mangawhai.

The cerulean waters of Mangawhai aren’t all that is on offer either. Mangawhai has a lively art scene, a newly built history-packed museum, a family-friendly adventure park, two markets and one of New Zealand’s top golf courses. A day trip or weekend is never enough. Accommodations abound in Mangawhai, from baches, campsites, camps and lodges, so choosing to experience ‘Magical Mangawhai’ is easy.

A DAY OUT IN MANGAWHAI Morning – For the more adventurous begin your morning in the ocean! Aotearoa Surf offers surf and paddle boarding lessons for all ages, and you can rent all the gear you need.

Afternoon – The Mangawhai Activity Zone is the ideal place on land to keep the kids entertained with a skate park, flying fox and playground. Follow it up with an estuary walk, home to the protected New Zealand Fairy Tern and Dotterel.

Evening – End a magical day in Mangawhai by heading to one of the many eateries or the Mangawhai Tavern, for family-friendly fun and entertainment.

WAIPU & LANGS BEACH The Waipu coast of the 1850s saw the migration of just under 1,000 Scottish settlers, fleeing famine and persecution and looking for their piece of paradise. They found it.

Waipu is a lovely coastal town with a commitment to its Scottish history. Waipu and Langs Beach offer exquisite beaches and beautiful environs for all travellers looking for relaxation.

For nearly 150 years, Waipu has celebrated its heritage with the annual Waipu Highland Games. Participants don the plaid and join with their clan to compete in traditional Highland Games.

Nearby walking tracks and the Waipu Caves give guests a chance to explore this area and see why the Scottish settlers had found their little piece of paradise.

A DAY OUT IN WAIPU & LANGS BEACH Morning – Spend your morning and early afternoon at one of the remarkable beaches.

Feel like surfing, swimming or sitting under the picturesque Pohutukawa trees? Waipu Cove and Langs Beach have you covered.

Afternoon – Piroa Falls is an idyllic waterfall a short trek off State Highway 1. If you crave another dip in the water, you can do that too! If you have time on your way back into town, stop at the Waipu Museum and immerse yourself in the history of Waipu.

Evening – McLeod’s Pizza Barn and Brewery will satisfy your hunger, and a stroll on one of the amazing beaches while the sun sets will perfectly cap off a relaxing day.
