Tirau
Great stores, coffee and creative corrugated iron art to be found.
This hidden gem is a must!! A total off the beaten track to see real, authentic caves in their natural state.
You get dirty!
Also great food to be had at the cafe.
The drive itself makes it worth while.... it’s rugged and beautiful!

A great zoo, especially for families. Easy to walk around and see the animals up close. Super family friendly place to spend some time.

Raglan
Beautiful beach town with fantastic surf beaches. Great shopping and food spots as well.
The walk around the mount is well worth doing, or walk up for stunning views. It’s a fantastic surf beach that isn’t as rugged as raglan. For families wanting something more calm, Pilot bay on the other side of the Mount is perfect. You can also hit up the hot pools which are between the two beaches.
Make sure you swim between the flags on the surf side!
