Laid-back coastal town
WHAKATĀNE

At around 40 minutes drive from our Action Bug Rangitaiki Tour, Whakatāne, the largest town in the Eastern Bay of Plenty is well worth the visit while you're in the area.

You'll find plenty to do and see in the down-town Whakatāne, with the ocean and cultural attraction Mataatua Wharenui (the house that came home) just a short walk away. Just over the hill is the coastal settlement of Ohope, which is well know for it's beautiful beach. You can find plenty helpful info on things to see and do at the Whakatāne iSite
