If you haven’t been up this way before, here is a little bit about the area. The Bay of Islands includes the towns of Kerikeri, Paihia, Opua and Russell. Kerikeri itself is a bustling town with a great selection of cafes & restaurants (at last count there was 27 places where you could a cup of coffee from!). We have 2 large supermarkets, the Saturday packhouse market (with all of our gorgeous local produce) a cinema, a theatre & some fantastic boutique shops. We have just about everything covered for what you would need for a great holiday. We have some of the best beaches for walking, surfing & fishing in the local area, Matauri Bay 20 minutes north and Paihia Beach 35 minutes south. We are a great location as a base for your exploration for all the Far North has to offer including Cape Reinga, Karikari Penninsular, Mangonui & Coppers Beach, The Hokianga & Russell.
