Eating out can be one of the highlights of a holiday in Napier. 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.

Napier is Hawke's Bay's port and New Zealand's art deco city, which was rebuilt in this style in the
1930s after a devastating earthquake. The city is proud of its art deco buildings. Visit the museum
to appreciate the architecture of Napier's art deco heritage. There are guided walking and driving
tours and an Art Deco Weekend is held on the third weekend in February. Events include private house
tours, an antique fair, cafe crawl, jazz and vintage cars. The surrounding horticultural and
winemaking region is a fertile market gardening area, while further out the rolling country is used
for sheep farming. The annual Harvest Hawke's Bay wine and food festival is held in the first
weekend of February every year. The Heritage Trails can also be walked or driven. Other features of
the city include the botanic gardens, the sunken garden, Tiffen Park, and the Kennedy Park rose
gardens. Napier also boasts an Art and Craft Trail and Antique Trail. Swim with dolphins and visit
the National Aquarium of New Zealand and the Ocean Spa pool complex, both on Marine Parade. Possum
World is a unique experience, as is dining at Mussel Boys.
