Baylys Beach
Activities at Baylys Beach include coastal walks, surfing, surf casting and playing a round of golf at the local Northern Wairoa 18-hole golf course.
The beach is ideal for 4-wheel drive groups, paragliding, parasailing and land yachting. Or for getting married.
The beach is a 5 to 10-minute walk down to one of the jewels of the North and the longest driveable beach in New Zealand, the west coast's 112km-long Ripiro Beach. Watching the sun set into the sea is one of the delights to experience, and the magical colours of the beach cliffs are a photographer's dream. See the wonder of history by looking at the black lines of past kauri trees embedded into the cliffs and sometimes exposed on the beach at low tide. This beach is also where many a shipwreck has been discovered – see the Dargaville Museum for more information.
This magnificent west coast beach goes for miles, even longer than the more famous 90 Mile Beach.
Dargaville
Dargaville, nestled on the banks of the Northern Wairoa River in Northland, is a charming town known for its rich history and vibrant culture. Often referred to as the "Kumara Capital of New Zealand," it boasts fertile farmland that produces much of the country's sweet potatoes. Visitors can explore the nearby Waipoua Forest, home to Tāne Mahuta, the largest kauri tree in the world, and enjoy breathtaking coastal landscapes at Baylys Beach, renowned for its vast stretches of sand and sunsets. The town itself offers unique experiences with its art galleries, local markets, and heritage sites like the Dargaville Museum, which tells the story of the region's gum-digging past. Whether you're seeking natural beauty, history, or a taste of local life, Dargaville provides a warm Kiwi welcome.
