Kaipara Harbour Travel Guide
Kaipara Harbour accommodation, Kaipara Harbour activities and attractions, Kaipara Harbour maps, transportation to and around Kaipara Harbour - the ALL NEW Jasons Kaipara Harbour Destination Travel Guide is your complete visitor guide for Kaipara Harbour.
As you drive from
Kaiwaka, across the mountainous Brynderwyn Ranges, you’ll reach the turn-off to the vast Kaipara Harbour, New Zealand’s largest enclosed harbour and a wonderful place to find a tranquil rural hideaway. Discover the Kaipara Harbour’s historic rural townships of
Maungatoroto,
Paparoa,
Ruawai and
Matakohe, and be sure to check out Northland’s award-winning
Kauri Museum at Matakohe.
The historic riverside town of
Dargaville is Kaipara Harbour’s main centre, and the ideal gateway to the ancient forests of the Kauri Coast, or tuck yourself away at tiny
Tinopai and enjoy the beaches and fishing.
