The Hawke's Bay area around Hastings is an adventure playground with something for everyone.
Spend a day with the family at Splash Planet water park. Make sure you take a picnic with you, or visit one of the many golf courses around the Bay including the spectacular Cape Kidnappers Golf Course.
Also at Cape Kidnappers is the world famous Gannet Colony, which you can visit by tractor or in comfort by air-conditioned 4WD bus.
Take in the views and walkways on the spectacular Te Mata Peak.
The Hawke's Bay Farmers Market is a great place to taste a huge variety of local products - this is held every Sunday morning at the Hawke's Bay Showgrounds. The art deco city of Napier is only a 15-minute drive away and the boutique village of Havelock North is a 5-minute drive away.
