Wits End Golden Bay S

Summary:
Charming Kiwi Beach Bach with Fantastic Beach and Ocean Views

Bach or holiday home, 3 Bedrooms, 1 Bathrooms, (Sleeps 6)
A few steps over the road from WitsEnd and you are walking on the golden sands of Ligar Bay which is a beautiful, safe, sandy beach. No having to drive to the beach, you are already there. If you forget the sun lotion it is only steps back to your welcoming bach. Ligar Bay is approximately 10 minutes drive from Takaka, a short drive to great walking tracks, the northern gateway of the Abel Tasman National Park and local attractions You can check out eateries in nearby Pohara or further afield if you want to combine dining with exploring Golden Bay. You can launch your boat at nearby Tarakohe Harbour or at Tata Beach or you could take a leisurely paddle around the Bay on WitsEnd's kayaks, maybe out to the Tata Islands to spot the seals or potter around in the Estuary at high tide. WitsEnd is furnished for comfort and that special 'holiday feel'. To enhance your stay, there are also mountain bikes available for exploring nearby areas and board and card games to bring out the competitive holiday spirit.

The Space:
Dine out on the balcony overlooking the water or out the back to keep the cook company at the BBQ. You will be drawn by the ever changing sea views and the relaxing atmosphere of WitsEnd.

This part of the area has a number of potters and artists studios.

Wharariki Beach is by far one of the most stunning beaches in New Zealand. Huge rock formations, sand hills, caves, cliffs, dunes , white sand and baby seals.

Farewell Spit is New Zealand’s longest sand spit (25 km) and a nature reserve. It is an internationally-renowned bird sanctuary with over 90 bird species recorded in the area.

Heaphy Track is one of New Zealand’s nine great walks. Many people choose to walk only to the first or second huts on the track instead of walking its entire length which have toilets and running-water facilities. The Heaphy Track, also allows mountain bikes.

Abel Tasman National Park is a must see, golden sand and clear waters, 3 hour to 3 day walks. Don't forget your camera.
