Awesome spot!
This region was central to the first settlement of New Zealand (Aotearoa) by Maori, the tangata whenua (people of the land).Ka-boom!
Whakaari (White Island) erupted as recently as 2001. Boulders the size of cars were tossed around the volcano crater.What a scorcher!
In 2010, Whakatane was the sunniest spot in the whole of New Zealand! Whakatane scores the country’s hottest temperature around 55 days a year. Summer daytime temperatures generally reach 20-25°C.That’s space!
Ohope beach is around 11km long - at an average of perhaps 50m wide that's 550,000 square metres of sand.Paradise!
Ohiwa Harbour is a haven for many rare and endangered species of birds. The hills above Whakatane are kiwi sanctuaries. There are many projects to restore and protect local environments. Whales, dolphins and Orca are often seen off the coast of Whakatane.Awesome spot!
