The twin bays of Matai Bay, and the neighbouring Karikari beach is our favourite spot in Northland. Completely amazing, with warm clear waters, and soft sensual sand on Karikari. Out of this world.

Yep again, no swimming for a while! Katrina at Karikari, on our walk to the white sand beachSoft white sand of Karikari Beach
