Dargaville is known throughout the country as the Kumara Capital of New Zealand. It is nestled
beside the Northern Wairoa River and has a rich cultural heritage of kauri logging, gumdigging,
shipbuilding and shipwrecks. In the last two decades, Dargaville has matured as a tourist attraction
and hosts such events as the Northland Agricultural Field Days and several major surf and trout
fishing competitions. Local art and craft galleries specialise in kauri timber products along with a
paper mill that produces paper products from rice grass, unique to the area and growing on the banks
of the Northern Wairoa River. The Dargaville Museum has relics from many of the area's shipwrecks
including the Rainbow Warrior masts. A range of accommodation is available, and the local cuisine at
cafes and restaurants features both local seafood and kumara delicacies.
