About Kaitaia

Often referred to as the “Capital of the Far North”, Kaitaia is a bustling town at the base of New Zealand’s Aupouri Peninsula. In addition to its rich Māori heritage, it has a large Dalmatian community, with Croatians arriving in the late 19th century to work the area’s kauri gum fields.

Things to do in Kaitaia

Begin your visit to Kaitaia at the Te Ahu Centre, which serves as both an information centre and a museum detailing the area’s cultural heritage. As you browse the historic artefacts on display, learn about the local Māori tribes and Europeans who have all left their mark on the town. Also on site is a cafe and a cinema screening documentary films.

Want to stretch your legs? Follow the short Kaitaia Walkway, which connects to a magnificent stand of kauri trees. You can continue climbing up to a high saddle for elevated views across Diggers Valley. Alternatively, follow the picturesque loop walk that hugs the banks of the Awanui River, connecting the Te Ahu Centre to the newly built Te Hiku sports hub.

Golfers can hit the greens and fairways of the Kaitaia Golf Club, which offers magnificent views across the Tasman Sea from its 18 holes. Designed by Goldie Wardell in the 1960s, it lies atop a series of sand dunes to the north of Ahipara. A highlight is the 6th hole, also known as “The Drop”. It requires players to negotiate three deep bunkers while being exposed to Kaitaia’s wild coastal elements.

Getting around Kaitaia

Kaitaia Airport is around 10 minutes’ drive from the town centre and has regular flights to Auckland. Buses also connect from Auckland to Kaitaia and the town centre is compact enough to explore on foot. Renting a car is the most convenient way of getting around the area.
