Northland is one of the main centres for Maori culture as well as the historical centre of European influence. The wild west coast and the idyllic east coast equally contrast with each other and compete for the most beautiful beaches. Rolling rural farmland is framed by some of New Zealands most original native forests.
The main highlight in Northland is of course foremost the famous Bay of Islands with its seascape and old historic Russell village, also Kerikeri with its historic buildings and inlet.
Further up north are the soundlike Whangaroa Harbour and Matauri Bay with remote walking tracks, the holiday coastline between Mangonui, Cable Bay and Coopers Beach, the idyllic Karikari Peninsula with Maitai Bay, the white silica sands at Rarawa Beach on the way to the epic Cape Reinga area with the Te Paki sand dunes and 90 Mile Beach.
Ahipara is at the foot of the same long beach, there are remote Maori settlements down along the West Coast towards Hokianga Harbour with even bigger sand dunes and romantic old villages like Kohukohu, Rawene and Opononi.
The West Coast continues with Waipoua Forest and its tree giants and 110 km long Ripiro Beach via Baylys Beach (the Kauri Coast) all the way to Pouto Point, leading to the gigantic and serene Kaipara Harbour.
