Omapere
In remote Omapere nature gangs up on you a bit, to completely blow your mind with some seriously stunning views.
Omapere is where the Hokianga Harbour meets the Tasman Sea and Mother Nature thought she would add some special touches for the occasion. Dazzling blue waters, pristine beaches, rolling hills and some of the biggest sand dunes you can imagine: do you get the picture? Despite its amazing scenery, Omapere has somehow slipped under the radar and instead of being packed, this sleepy settlement and its twin town Opononi remain blissfully quiet getaways in nature.
