Beautiful native bush walk. Lovely walk along the Brook Stream for kids with plenty of piwakawaka and weta to keep them amused.

Great reserve just 30 minutes drive away and accessed by car (despite being an island!). Beautiful safe beach with large grass reserve behind with gas and wood bbq's available. Wooded areas with trees to climb and adventures to be had.There are also bike tracks and at the north end of the island you can catch a ferry over to Mapua for an ice-cream, beer or lunch too.

Only a 15 minute drive and one of the safest beaches in the country. Plenty of space to play, with rock pools at low tide near the road end. There is also a long reserve behind the beach with many play parks, minigolf, trampoline park, water slides, go-karting, cafe and one of our favourites, Natureland.

The best curry in town, by far. Virtually everything is gluten free. Takeaway too and kids menu as well.
