The Pauanui to Tairua (nearly) cycleway
A great wee ride along boardwalks, a few ups and downs, great views; a fun morning out with the family.

Mount Pauanui
A reasonable trek up the hill, stunning views of the surrounding islands at the top.
Takes a bit of huff and puff to get to the top, well worth the effort.

Digging for tuatuas
Grab a bucket and the family at low tide and get wiggling in the sand with your feet to find tuatuas.
A yum pre dinner snack; leave overnight in salt water and boil the next day until they open. Yum stuff.
