In 1985, the Greenpeace boat Rainbow Warrior was bombed by the French in response to opposition to nuclear testing. Later relocated to Matauri Bay, the wreck is now a marine eco-system and a world-class dive site.
Matauri Bay Beach
Delightfully remote, with a white-sand beach and crystalline water. The campsite is seldom packed and thanks to a subtropical climate, the water is year-round temperate.
Kayak the Cavalli Islands
Comprising seven pristine islets, the main island of Motukawanui is part of a nature reserve with walking tracks and a DOC hut. Book a multi-day guided adventure with local companies or rent a kayak to forge your own route.
