May 11, 2022 Trinity Boughner

The Māori call Auckland Tāmaki Makaurau — a maiden desired by 100 lovers, and a valuable territory fought over for centuries for its fertile land and natural harbors on the Pacific Ocean (to the east) and Tasman Sea (to the west). Today, it’s New Zealand’s largest city: A vibrant and diverse place where nature and urban life go hand-in- hand, with 48 volcanic cones, more than 50 islands, and 29,000 km of coastline and beaches just minutes away from the arts and shopping of the central city.

Nikau Cave

Reviewed By olibiddle - Manchester, United Kingdom

You WILL get wet, you WILL have to crawl army style on hands and knees, this WILL be through the small gaps and water, you WILL love it! Things to remember, the clothes you have on will get wet and dirty, take a spare of everything and a towell ( there's a room to get changed in after, no frills), no photos in the caves (pretty standard for glow worm caves), Nikau caves provide helmets and waterproof touches. Fantastic guide Phillip ( the farms owner) take everything he says with a pinch of salt he enjoys a laugh but his knowledge of the caves is great listen to his advice and direction and you couldn't be with a safer pair of hands. We booked via email day before, really easy. Also nice snacks available and good coffee after, again nothing special but well needed and just what youll be after.

Muriwai Surf School

Muriwai Surf School is located only 35mins drive from Aucklands central city. Our surf shed is only a one minute walk from the beach. We are located in a regional park which has fantastic walks with great coastal views. The beach is a black sand beach and 45km long. Aucklands West Coast (Tasman Sea) gets plenty of swell which makes it a perfect place for surfers and non surfers looking to escape the hussle and bussle of the city for a few hours (or in my case life). From the surf shed we offer surf lessons, surf coaching, surfboard & wetsuit hire, adventure hire, blokart hire. We are a Kiwi owned and operated family business who pride ourselves on our old school friendly service.
