Welcome to Anaura Bay

57km from Gisborne
Anaura Bay is one of the most beautiful of all the East Cape Bays.  It is well worth the 7km drive. Steeped in history, Captain Cook berthed at Anaura where he was warmly welcomed by local Māori, after a speedy retreat from Poverty Bay! Anaura is a very safe haven with a flat golden sanded beach with great fishing. As you arrive at the bottom of the hill directly in front of you is the entrance to Anaura Bay Family Motor Camp and a public toilet. Against a backdrop of wonderful native bush is a well formed DOC walkway.  This is a one way track to a high point offering great views of the bay. 1 hour approx. return.
