    Review of: Town Basin
    Perfect place for a stop over.
    So much to see and do here. The shops are lovely to browse through and there are some great cafes. The Council have done a superb job of re creating this area.

    Review of: Waka 'n' Wave Sculpture
    Worth a look.
    Great concept and part of some wonderful sculptures along the waterfront. Very enjoyable to view and so many interesting angles of viewing.

    Review of: Te Kākano
    Wonderful set up
    Museum interesting, as is the whole area. Recommend walkimg the loop pathway rather interesting with bridges that open for boats.

    Review of: Hundertwasser Art Centre
    Wonderful few days
    A fantastic experience and definitely recommended. Taking the tour (Pam is amazing with her personal knowledge) is highly suggested after which take time to wonder and browse. Whangarei has a gem and should be proud.

    Review of: Canopy Bridge
    Whangarei Town Basin Bridge
    The views are beautiful in the Whangarei Town Basin, and certainly not less so from the Canopy Bridge, a feature on its own. This is a pedestrian and cycle bridge, so safe to show down and enjoy the vistas.
