Karikari Peninsula

The Karikari Peninsula is a right-angled land mass of two relatively distinct parts. The rocky northern part, which has an east-west orientation and is approximately 17 km long, was originally an island. It is connected to the rest of the Northland Region of New Zealand by a low sandy strip approximately 11 km long, which has a north-south orientation. Rangaunu Harbour is to the west and Doubtless Bay is to the southeast. The Moturoa Islands are to the north. The spiritually significant Puwheke sits high above the north-facing beaches. Grapes are grown on the northern side of Karikari.
