A rocky bay is home to a busy Post Office store / grocery store. The original store was established by James Walker who established his business interests here in the 1870’s.  Kea Creations & the Waihau Bay General Store have local information on the coast and local sea conditions. The area is lively with locals popping in for the mail, a chat and a coffee. There is an active deep sea fishing club with a concrete boat ramp. Boat charters can be arranged with the local grocery store. A local coastguard (VHF Channel 63) manned during daylight hours.

TIP

Look across the bay and you will see the white spire of Anglician Raukokore Church etched against the horizon.
