Eating out can be one of the highlights of a holiday in Katikati. You can expect to find wonderful examples of edible excellence throughout the country, and the high standard of food offered by cafes and restaurants can be attributed to an unlimited supply of fresh, quality ingredients. The cuisine style known as Pacific Rim is New Zealand's point of difference. Pacific Rim blends the flavours of South East Asia, the Pacific and Japan. Seafood, the traditional Maori hangi (an earth oven), fresh fruit and locally produced venison and beef are just a selection of the must-try cuisine on offer. Combine this with world-class locally made wines and you have a memorable dining experience.

Katikati: Katikati has 37 murals and open-air artworks in and around the main street. The Haiku Pathway that meanders along the Uretara River provides an enjoyable short walk, and the new heritage museum, just south of the town, is a must-see for those interested in the town's history. Small block occupation in the area includes lifestyle farming of ostrich, emu, goats and a range of cropping and horticulture - avocado, nashi pears, kiwifruit, lemons, tree crops, flowers and vegetables. Katikati has boat ramps and jetties on the inner harbour coastline for fishing and boating enthusiasts. Outdoor activities include coastal walks, bush walks and Kaimai Forest Park hikes. The bird gardens are well worth a visit. Take a wine tasting tour at a local vineyard and stay on to dine.
