Just 90 min from Auckland Harbour Bridge
Summer is well and truly upon us and although we had a normal year predicted by the experts, (not La Nina or El Nino and expected it to be dry, we have had La Nina well and truely, so lots of rain and easterlies. In years past we have been lucky to see the low pressure systems going way out to the east, so cyclone remnants have missed us. This year however, with the low pressure systems more directly over us and even west, we can anticipate we will feel the effects of a cyclone sometime this summer.
However, Mangawhai is still a great place to visit, even in the rain, with lots of things to do, galleries, restaurants, shops, all with fantasic yummy things to feast your eyes or your tummy on. The Golf course is all weather too and there is mini golf (behind the tackle shop) for the family to have fun on too.
Charter boats will take you on a harbour cruise if you can't get out to sea due to the surf on the bar, still fun and a look at Mangawhai from a different angle.
Book your accommodation today and enjoy some fun in the sun (or the rain) and feel like you are on an exotic get-a-way!
Come to Mangawhai for a fabulous family holiday, or maybe you need a quiet retreat?
Mangawhai has something for everyone.
