Best Places to Visit in Paihia

Nestled in the heart of the Bay of Islands, Paihia is a gem waiting to be discovered by eager travelers. This coastal haven is not just a picturesque postcard but a treasure trove of culture, history, and adventure. Whether you're a nature lover, history buff, or simply in need of some serene beach time, Paihia has something special for everyone.

Waitangi Treaty Grounds

A visit to Paihia would be incomplete without stepping foot on the Waitangi Treaty Grounds, the birthplace of New Zealand as a nation. Here, you can immerse yourself in the country's history and learn about the Treaty of Waitangi, signed in 1840. The beautifully carved meeting house and the world's largest ceremonial war canoe are sights to behold. For a deeper understanding, join one of the guided tours offered by Happytripz, and let the past come alive.

Paihia Beaches

The golden sands of Paihia's beaches are perfect for a day of relaxation or fun-filled water activities. Whether it's building sandcastles with the kids or kayaking through the clear waters, the beaches here are a slice of paradise. Don't miss out on a chance to explore the underwater world with a snorkeling excursion, courtesy of Happytripz, where the vibrant marine life will leave you in awe.

Haruru Falls

Just a short drive from Paihia, Haruru Falls is a natural spectacle that showcases the power and beauty of water. The name Haruru means "big noise," and the falls live up to it, with water cascading down in a horseshoe shape. It's a perfect spot for a picnic or a photo op, and if you're lucky, you might even spot a rainbow on a sunny day.

Island Excursions

The Bay of Islands is dotted with over 140 islands, each offering unique experiences. Take a boat tour with Happytripz to the iconic Hole in the Rock on Motukokako Island, or set foot on Urupukapuka Island to enjoy some of the best hiking trails with panoramic views of the bay. For those interested in the rich marine life, the Bay of Islands is home to a plethora of sea creatures, including dolphins. In fact, Paihia is one of the best places in New Zealand to go dolphin watching, and with Happytripz, you can experience these magnificent mammals in their natural habitat. Paihia is a destination that will capture your heart with its stunning landscapes, warm hospitality, and endless activities. With Happytripz as your guide, you're sure to create memories that will last a lifetime. So pack your bags, and let Paihia's charm enchant you!
