Blue Lagoon Tattoo Studio

👍👍 I've just seen Michaela for a small tattoo, and cannot fault the experience. Right from contacting her with my idea through to the communication, the procedure and the aftercare, Michaela as been lovely and professional.

Askerne Estate Winery

Winery

👍👍 What a beautiful winery. We literally had the whole place to ourselves when we came on a weekday but even if there were other people around it would've also been enjoyable.

Ocean Beach, Hawke's Bay

Beach

👍👍 Only 40 minutes from Napier but it feels like a world away. A remote crescent of golden sand stretches over 10 km / 6 mi from Cape Kidnappers to the north and Waimarama Beach to the south.

Marine Parade

Park

👍👍 Very nice walk along the bay with views over cape kidnappers cliffs. Beach is not suitable for swimming, very strong and dangerous currents in the water. The walk stretch from the war memorial to the aquarium and further down south. Relaxing place to enjoy the sea views.
