Tawharanui Regional Park

TIME : 2016/2/19 13:49:40

A partly unsealed road leads to this 588-hectare reserve at the end of a peninsula. This special place is an open sanctuary for native birds, protected by a pest-proof fence, while the northern coast is a marine park (bring a snorkel). There are plenty of walking tracks (1½ to four hours) but the main attraction is Anchor Bay , one of the region’s finest white-sand beaches.

Camping is allowed at two basic sites near the beach (adult/child $15/6) and there's a six-person bach for hire ($168).
