Dargaville is a small, friendly town located in the central north-west of the North Island, on the Northland Region peninsula, 2 1/2 hours drive north of Auckland.  It is ideally located to visit south-west Northland, and maybe a good base for a few days exploring.

 

The town was founded in the mid-1800's, and was known for a thriving industry in kauri tree logging and gum (amber) digging.  Now it  has a population of around 5000 and in the last 20 years has grown in popularity as tourist destination.

 

Being located on a large natural harbour on the Kauri Coast, there are a number of water sports, fishing excursions and boat cruises to experience, as well as dry land activities such as mountain biking, walking/hiking and beach quad bike hire.  The beaches are stunning, too.

 

The town offers a varied selection of shops, art galleries museums to wander around, and when you feel a bit peckish, there are a wide variety of dining options to choose from.

 

Accommodation in and around the town are as diverse as the rest of the country, and choosing where to stay could be your dilemma.
