Matakana is small town a little way inland from the coast, at the northern end of the Hauraki Gulf, on the jagged coastline of bays, rivers and fjord-style inlets.

 

Matakana Village is in the centre of the Matakana Coast Wine Country, which stretches along meandering rivers and bordered by the beautiful Pacific coastline and beaches from Puhoi in the south, to Pakiri in the north.  The area is just a short 35 mile drive north of Auckland up State Highway 1 and makes it a popular destination for Aucklanders into their food and wine, for short getaways.   The boutique food shops, trendy cafes and restaurants and excellent weekly farmers market just adds to the towns' gastronomic appeal.

 

If you are looking to experience the very best of New Zealands wine country and you want to enjoy a gastronomic treat then a stay in this area is must, where your choice of dinning is endless, once dubbed the Fruitbowl of Auckland, the mass growing of  exotic tropical fruits has given way to the proliferation of small boutique wineries many of them family run, where wine production is a passion not a business!

 

The nearby coastline with its beaches and coves, offer miles of white sand, with great swimming and snorkelling, soft dunes, and fascinating rock pools to explore.

 

You can visit the area just for the day, or you can elect to spend a few nights there and explore the area at your leisure
