Kawerau Golf Club

A popular spot known to locals as 'The Heads' where the Whakatāne River meets the sea.

The gardens comprise rose gardens, a formal entrance, scented garden and areas for bulbs, shrubs and perennials. 

One of New Zealand’s most scenic golf courses, uniquely situated between Pacific Ocean on one side and the beautiful, unspoilt Ohiwa Harbour. 

The Whakatāne Astronomical Society provide night sky viewing from the nationally renowned Whakatāne Observatory.

Do something new, New Zealand! The kiwi invented riverbug is the most fun and unique way to explore our taonga wai (water treasures).

Great fun for the little ones. Trains generally run on Sundays from 10 am - until 3 pm, weather permitting.

Enjoy a secluded holiday, relaxing at the pools, and taking day trip to all the attractions the Bay of Plenty has to offer.

An Ōhope Beach home-based photographic and art gallery featuring landscapes and native birds including local scenes.
