The lower North island region of Kapiti and Horowhenua boasts unspoilt beaches, rivers, villages, friendly people and natural, open spaces – the perfect places to enjoy real Kiwi experiences. We are nestled between the mountains and the sea, and offer an affordable, self-drive, family destination, just an hour from the main cities of Wellington and Palmerston North. Our spectacular coastal landscape and warm climate has made the region and its nature-based lifestyle a desirable place to live and stay. For Kiwis, we are a superb place to holiday at home, and for visitors from overseas (whether here for a major sporting event or simply to explore this part of the world), we are a great location to use as a base and take it easy. We are conveniently located right on State Highway 1 and the North Island main trunk railway line. There are many protected nature or conservation areas in our region, including the iconic Kapiti Island, forest and regional parks, estuaries and wetlands ... all these areas are available for you to enjoy. Our cultural and heritage stories are told through our museums and historic sites and everywhere you go there are places to picnic, play golf, walk, cycle, swim, fish or just relax! Your stay here is complete with fresh, local food, wonderful accommodation options and friendly, relaxed people. We welcome you to our region and know that you will treasure and look after it – and enjoy it as much as we do. |
