Northland Trip: Matai Bay in Karikari Peninsula

14 October, 2017
It was the second morning of our road trip and it began to rain. Needing to get outside we decided to go for a drive to Matai Bay, a beach my partner, Sam had visited a lot over family vacations.

The lighthouse is a short walk away from the carpark, stop and read a bit of the history and take in the views. I wish we had time to do some of the walks but we had a two hour drive back to the bach, if you’d like to do one make sure you plan ahead and give yourself plenty of time. The views are spectacular...
