About Tawharanui
Tawharanui is only 60 minutes from the city – Get out of the cityscape and explore this natural sanctuary
This unique place offers some of the best opportunities to view NZ’s flora and fauna on the mainland and all just a little over an hour from Auckland City.
Tawharanui is one of Auckland’s treasures; stunning white sand beaches, bays, views of the Gulf and nearby islands together with the backdrop of native coastal forests and wetlands and not a building in sight. Tawharanui Regional Park is a sanctuary integrating conservation, recreation and farming, all comfortably sitting together in harmony. Being a pest free environment ensures a safe haven to much of New Zealand’s wildlife including endangered species such as the kiwi, dotterel, saddleback.
Tawharanui has it all -
white sand beaches, coastal forests and wetlands, amazing native birdlife
Conservation efforts at Tawharanui have been immense with committed volunteers working with Auckland Council in making this park predator free, on tour learn more about NZ’s natural history, what are the predators and why their impact has been so devastating; learn also how the amazing initiative of volunteers has turned this place into such a successful conservation park now home to many threatened species.
We at Habitat Tours support the conservation groups of TOSSI at Tawharanui and the volunteers of Little Barrier Island.
