Natural Northland

With the waters of the Bay of Islands rich with fish life, fresh locally caught seafood is a popular feature on the menu in the Nikau Restaurant. So too are other regional specialties such as a terrine made from locally raised pork and a selection of Northland cheeses. For something very Kiwi, look out for the Rewana bread (a type of Maori bread) and the country’s national desert, the pavlova.
