Are you planning a trip to Auckland but want a bit of beach time too? Look no further than our Matakana Coast accommodation! Not only are the waterfront views unreal here, the Matakana Coast also boasts some incredible mountain scenery!
HistoryThe Matakana Coast was settled in the 1840s and many of the villages and townships are filled with beautiful old-fashioned buildings. Even if you aren't really into architecture, you'll be able to appreciate the charm that the buildings add to the beautiful mountain backdrop.
Things to doOmaha Bay, which means "Place of Pleasure" in Maori, is certainly a pleasant place to go surfing, swimming, sailing and fishing. And if you're here in April, you'll be able to cheer on the competitors in the annual Omaha Classic Run/Walk Event.
Not far from Omaha Bay is Matheson's Bay, which is another beaut swimming possie but if you're keen to check out some of the local marine life, make a beeline for the Goat Island Marine Reserve, where you can go snorkeling and scuba diving.
Shopping and DiningThe coast is well-known for its art galleries and workshops, so make sure you take a browse before hitting up the Matakana Village Farmers' Market and the Matakana Country Park Family Market, which are both held on Saturday mornings. Alternatively, you can visit the Puhoi Farmers Market on the last Sunday of the month.
When you need a bite to eat, you can feast on fresh seafood and gourmet goodies in a casual eatery or a fine dining restaurant – there's something here for all palates and budgets. There's also a wicked gelataria and chocolaterie and you'll find the perfect drop to pair with your choccy if you embark on the Matakana Wine Trail.
Getting Hhere and aroundThe Auckland Airport is only an hour away, so grab one of these cheap flights to Auckland. There are some buses that run between Auckland and the Matakana Coast but not all areas are well-serviced, so you're best off hiring a car if you really want to explore the region.
