PUHOI + MAHURANGI WEST The charming village of Puhoi serves as the gateway to the region, nestled amidst rolling farmland, native bush and the banks of the Puhoi River. Settled by Bohemian immigrants in 1863, its rich heritage and pioneering history have been preserved through landmarks like the Puhoi Pub and the local museum.

Just north, Mahurangi West, a rural settlement borders the Mahurangi Harbour.

Part of the Mahurangi Regional Park, it boasts a number of picturesque bays and coastal walking tracks, offering a quintessential Kiwi experience.

Puhoi River

Visit The serene Puhoi River stretches 8km to Wenderholm Regional Park, and is ideal for a leisurely day on the water. Kayaks are available for rent in Puhoi village - including single, double, and Canadian canoes for families and groups - with transportation back to Puhoi once you reach Wenderholm, the perfect spot for a quick dip before your return.

Explore the unique history of the town at the Puhoi Heritage Museum and the quaint Puhoi Library, one of the smallest in the country. There is a wellstocked general store for most necessities and on the last Sunday of the month enjoy the Puhoi Village Market, where you’ll find local arts, crafts, artisanal food, and fresh produce.

10

Walks Mahurangi West’s regional park offers three fantastic walks that lead to the remote beaches of the peninsula and provide stunning views of the Hauraki Gulf and the Coromandel. Each track takes about two to three hours, or combine them for a longer adventure.

The 5km Puhoi Track, part of the Te Araroa Trail that runs through the country, winds through native bush and along ridgelines, offering glimpses of the Puhoi Valley. Finish at the Puhoi Domain end for a refreshing drink across the road.

Off-road mountain biking enthusiasts can tackle an 85km loop that starts from Puhoi village and offers a challenging route, with over 1,000 metres of elevation, through farmland and natural bush to the beautiful Kaipara Harbour.

WARKWORTH Abundant in history, Warkworth is a picturesque town located on the Mahurangi River, just 45 minutes north of Auckland. Attractions such as the Warkworth Museum, situated within the grounds of the beautiful Parry Kauri Park, highlight the pioneering history of the Matakana Coast area.

The town itself offers charming boutique riverside stores and eateries, including two historic pubs that date back to the 1800s. Visitors can relax by the river, or stroll along the scenic Warkworth Town riverbank walk taking in the country’s last remaining rigged sailing scow, The Jane Gifford, along the way.

Visit

Warkworth Riverfront

Every spring, the Kowhai Festival celebrates the blooming of the yellow natives that grace the town and river with a month of volunteer-organised activities in October. Highlights include the Family Day Out, with games, rides, and the famous Kowhai Festival Raft Race, Mahurangi Riverside Vibes, which offers food, wine and live music along the river, plus the Great Debate and an outdoor movie night.

The popular Mahurangi Winter Festival of Lights held in July transforms the Warkworth wharf into a daytime wonderland with rides, face painting and food trucks. At night, the town centre lights up with laser shows, music and a parade.

The Warkworth A&P Lifestyle Show, held annually at the local showgrounds, showcases local music and cuisine alongside a free Fun Zone for children, while offering a glimpse into local farming life.

Lucy Moore Park

Walks Parry Kauri Park, home to the two tallest kauri trees on New Zealand’s east coast, features ancient native bush and offers family-friendly loop tracks ranging from 10 to 45 minutes within its 8.5 hectare expanse. Informative signs along the paths provide insights into the native trees and birdlife, making it an educational and enchanting experience for visitors.

Main access to the Warkworth Town riverbank walk is via Kapanui or Wharf Streets, with plenty of parking and seating available, plus a riverside playground perfect for younger children. Continue along the path to discover Lucy Moore Park, named after the renowned ‘mother of New Zealand botany’. It offers delightful amenities for families, such as a double flying fox and abundant open space for children and dogs to run around freely.

Kowhai Park, situated at the southern end of Warkworth, offers picturesque trails with some elevated boardwalks and paths to protect against kauri dieback, allowing visitors to explore the mossy kilns that date back to 1884. The track features abundant native flora, including the area’s largest matai trees.

18

Beaches Although not a coastal town, Warkworth has a freshwater swimming hole at the Warkworth Cement Works, located a short drive from the centre of town on Wilson Road. Surrounded by the historic ruins of what was once the Southern Hemisphere’s first Portland cement manufacturer, it provides a picturesque backdrop for a sunny day spent on the water’s edge.

Shopping Serving as the central hub of the area, Warkworth offers a comprehensive array of businesses and services, including branches of major national banks, a post office, an information centre, and three supermarkets.

Beyond the necessities lie numerous cafés, boutiques, and art galleries.

For those seeking second-hand treasures, several opportunity and charity shops are scattered around the area.

MAHURANGI PENINSULA Home to the charming communities of Sandspit, Snells Beach, Algies Bay, Martins Bay, and Scotts Landing, the Mahurangi Peninsula has a lot on offer.

Enjoyable treks and picturesque beaches combined with multiple campgrounds and activities make it the perfect destination for families and outdoor enthusiasts alike.

Playgrounds dot the coastal landscape and the donkeys await your visit at Highfield Garden Reserve, while Scotts Landing and Scandrett Park offer an educational glimpse into the past with historic buildings to explore.

Snells Beach

Visit Journey through the coastal locales of the Mahurangi Peninsula starting at Sandspit, a tranquil spot with a bustling marina, excellent playground, beachfront holiday park and the departure point for the Kawau Island ferry.

Next you’ll discover the vibrant community of Snells Beach offering several eateries, a pub and essential amenities. Bike or walk the scenic waterfront path, stretching the length of the beach, with multiple playgrounds and the infamous fairy houses along the way. Self-contained vehicles can camp along the beach in designated areas.

32

Algies Bay awaits just around the point. Renowned for its spectacular sunrise views, head to the summit of Highfield Garden Reserve for the perfect vantage point. The reserve also offers several pathways for safe and easy access to the shore, plus the opportunity to interact with donkeys - bring carrots, apples or silverbeet to feed them.

Just beyond Algies Bay you’ll find Scandrett Regional Park, dotted with sheep and offering a captivating glimpse into Kiwi history. The park not only houses Maori pa sites but also features the meticulously restored original homestead and farm buildings dating back to the late 1800s. Auckland Regional Council offers various accommodation options from baches to vehicle spots.

Martins Bay is perfect for boating enthusiasts due to the convenience of launching directly from the beach, as well as a water-ski lane located at the northern end. The banks of the bay offer ample shade dotted with Pohutukawa trees plus a wonderful playground and basketball court, while the holiday park offers beachfront sites.

M A H U RMAANTGAIKPAENNAI N S U L A

On the west of the peninsula, Scotts Landing welcomes visitors with its charm and a historical trail, ending at Scott Point where a picturesque boardwalk leads to the historic Scott Homestead.

Snells Beach playground

33

Beaches The Mahurangi Peninsula boasts an abundance of beaches. Sandspit offers the safe waters of a tidal bay, complete with a shallow pontoon perfect for kids. Snells Beach is best for swimming during the few hours of high tide, as is Algies Bay, but with the added benefit of a more sheltered environment.

The gentle waves of Martins Bay offers a deeper pontoon plus a beachfront playground for all-day fun. Scandrett Regional Park displays natural beauty with a peaceful bay surrounded by the historic farming landscape, while Scotts Landing offers the opportunity to walk across to Casnell Island at low tide.

Walks Within Scandrett Regional Park, there are two primary loop tracks that guide you through a blend of historical and present-day farmland. The Kawau Bay Track and the Mullet Point Track, each about an hour in duration, offer breathtaking vistas that stretch back along Scandrett Bay, providing a scenic treat for visitors.

In addition to the main loops, several shorter tracks within the park lead to captivating lookouts, historical sites, and even a brief trail that leads you to the neighbouring Martins Bay. These pathways offer diverse and enriching experiences, allowing you to explore and discover the park’s hidden gems and enjoy its natural beauty from various vantage points.

TASTE | EXPLORE | DINE Brick Bay is a place where food, wine, and art come together in perfect harmony.

This summer, visit the stunning vineyard and restaurant, nestled among native bush and rolling vines, and explore the Brick Bay Sculpture Trail – a one-of-a-kind outdoor gallery that features New Zealand’s most exciting contemporary artworks, thoughtfully placed in a landscape that transforms with each step.

For the first time, Brick Bay will stay open into the evening with Twilight Walks.

From December to March, you can wander the Sculpture Trail as the sun dips low, casting a magical light over the artworks and native landscape. Pair your twilight stroll with one of their relaxed grazing platters, or linger longer with extended hours for full dinner service on Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays.

Add a glass of Brick Bay wine and an evening of conversation as dusk settles – it’s an experience that combines the very best of summer’s long, golden days and warm nights. Visit brickbay.co.nz for details on the extended hours and bookings and let the art, nature, and hospitality of Brick Bay create memories that last long after summer ends.

LEIGH, GOAT ISLAND + PAKIRI The fishing village of Leigh, where coastal adventures and quaint eateries await, is also home to the Goat Island Marine Reserve. The first of its kind in New Zealand, enjoy educational experiences and immersive encounters at the Marine Discovery Centre managed by the University of Auckland.

Pakiri Beach, a short drive from Leigh, offers a serene and expansive white sandy beach, where activities such as fishing, surfing, swimming, and beachcombing top the list of things to do.

Leigh Town

Visit Renowned for its coastal location, locally sourced fresh fish and established live music venue, Leigh and its surrounds offer quaint village vibes with big adventures. Whangateau presents picturesque sports fields, a playground and a nearby holiday park, all located on the water’s edge. Ti Point is home to the only zoo in New Zealand specialising in reptiles, founded in 1972.

Pakiri offers a long stretch of white sandy beach plus an estuary for calmer waters, complete with a holiday park just footsteps away. While Goat Island provides unique marine experiences for visitors of all ages with its Marine Reserve, established in 1975. From snorkelling to diving, transparent kayaks to a glass bottom boat tour, there are endless opportunities to enjoy the abundance of marine life. Learn more about the marine environment with interactive displays and more at the Goat Island Marine Discovery Centre.

74

Beaches

Whangateau’s narrow harbour, flowing between Omaha and Ti Point, is ideal for swimming, boating, and kayaking.

Just a 15-minute walk from Leigh Village sits Mathesons Bay, a small cove beach with a large playground, pontoon and numerous rock pools for exploration. Certified self-contained vehicles can stay for up to two nights.

Pakiri features 14km of pristine beach, extending to Te Arai Point in the north.

Although it is a popular destination for surfers, its remote location helps keep it less crowded. During summer, the beach is patrolled, but for a more tranquil experience, head to the estuary at the southern end, which is ideal for families with young children.

Walks For a fantastic coastal adventure, try the Leigh Coastal Path or Ti Point Coastal Walkway. Both are located along the beautiful Pohutukawa-fringed coastline and feature 3-4km of elevated trail. With stunning views of Omaha, Tawharanui, Goat Island, and even the Coromandel Peninsula on clear days, these one-hour walks offer diverse terrain with paved, gravel, boardwalk, and grass sections.

The Goat Island Coastal Walk begins at the Auckland University Marine Laboratory. Depending on your chosen route, it takes about one hour each way.

This scenic trail leads to Tabletop Reef, offering phenomenal views of the Hen and Chicken Islands, Pakiri, and the Hauraki Gulf. You can return or take the Farm Loop back to the starting point for a memorable hike.

The Matheson Bay Bush Walk is a relatively easy trail which connects to Leigh Road through native bush, and features the Kohuroa Stream Waterfalls.

Shopping Planning an extended stay in the area? Stock up on supplies in nearby Warkworth during your journey. For essentials, the Leigh General Store is a convenient option, providing postal services and an ATM. While in Leigh, enjoy fantastic local bars and a café serving pizza, coffee, cabinet food, and, of course, delicious fish and chips.

Mangawhai Harbour

From surf beaches to the calm waters of the harbour, Mangawhai offers an abundance of opportunities to enjoy nature. Dubbed the walking capital of the North, enjoy the scenic walks it’s renowned for during Mangawhai Walking Weekend, an annual event at the end of March.

Home to two Saturday markets, the Mangawhai Tavern Markets and Mangawhai Community Markets showcase a delightful array of artisan food, crafts, and local produce. The annual Mangawhai Art Trail celebrates talented local artists who welcome the public to explore their studios free of charge on the last weekend in February.

Mangawhai Activity Zone (MAZ), a publicly funded recreational facility and must visit for families, boasts everything from basketball courts to a huge playground and pump track. The impressive Mangawhai Bowl Bash is hosted at its skatepark annually on Waitangi weekend, attracting top skaters from all over New Zealand.

85

Walk & Bike The Mangawhai Cliffs Walkway spans 5km and is regarded as one of New Zealand’s top short walks. Leading from the shoreline to the cliff tops, you’ll be rewarded with breathtaking views stretching from Bream Head to Coromandel.

The Tanekaha walking tracks include the Forest Track, offering stunning views of Mangawhai and the rural landscape below, and the Falls Track, featuring three spectacular waterfalls. Combining the two tracks with the Langs View Track offers a spectacular 4-5 hour loop.

The Mangawhai Shared Path, due for completion at the end of 2024, connects Mangawhai Village Centre to Mangawhai Heads Centre for both walkers and cyclists. The path passes Mangawhai Activity Zone (MAZ), a one-stop destination for children’s entertainment, which also offers scenic walking and mountain bike trails plus an on-site café.

Beaches

Bench overlooking Mangawhai Harbour

A favoured beach for both swimmers and surfers, Mangawhai Heads is patrolled by a local surf life-saving team during summer. Bring your boogie board, even if you don’t intend to swim, as riding down the dunes is an epic experience.

Mangawhai Harbour is an ideal spot for a family day out swimming, diving, and enjoying boating activities. The lagoon-style harbour offers calm waters, perfect for kayaking and paddleboarding enthusiasts.

Te Ārai Regional Park is home to Te Ārai Beach, another popular surfing spot, and Te Ārai Point, where you can explore the headland and take a dip in the retired quarry. Certified self-contained vehicles may book to stay for up to three nights.

For a change of scene visit Tomarata Lake, surrounded by picturesque farmland. Its shallow waters offer an ideal setting for swimming, jet skiing, and kayaking, with the convenience of a boat ramp for easy launching.
