Silverdale Pioneer Village
Heritage museum
ππ From the road you could easily miss this unique historic village. Kept by a team of dedicated volunteers to a very micro detailed presentation. The landscapes and cottage styled gardens are a joy to look at. The site is larger than you would first envision.

Okura River walkway
Scenic spot
ππ Nice track that feels surprisingly quiet and isolated given how close it is to the shore. Nice views and scenery as you take the track. It is worth taking the beach track if the tide is out when you visit as it is a nice break from the otherwise mostly bush track. Would definitely recommend as a day...
