Kauri Coast

The Kauri Coast is a dramatic stretch of Kauri forest and picturesque beaches on the northern west coast of the North Island, 90 minutes drive north of Auckland, and continues northwards to Hokianga. The Kauri Coast runs from the town of Brynderwyn up to the Hokianga Harbour and is accessed along the Twin Coast Discovery Highway. Famed for its giant kauri trees, stunning beaches and significant Maori and pioneer history, the Kauri Coast and Hokianga region is steeped in spectacular natural wonders and fascinating cultural heritage. Continuing north takes in the harbourside twin towns of Omapere and Opononi nestled on the shores of the stunning Hokianga Harbour.
