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.
Paihia: Known as the Jewel of the Bay of Islands, Paihia was the site of New Zealand's first church, made of reeds. Its stone replacement, the Church of St Paul, is still used for worship. A ferry links Paihia with Russell, and Waitangi is just a 25-minute walk. Leisure activities both in the town and its surrounds are diving, water skiing, fishing, sky diving, golf and cruising.
