CENTRAL RUSSELL LOCATION

There are no views from the house, but the central location on the Russell peninsular means you can leave the car and walk. Romantic Russell village is less than 10 minutes walk away, where you can explore the many cafes, restaurants, bars and shops on the waterfront. Kororareka Bay (Russell Beach)  is wonderful for swimming, family picnics, lunch on the beach…. Picturesque Russell harbour is a popular mooring spot for local and visiting yachties.

Nearby Matauwhi Bay is about 5 minutes walk away. Matauwhi Bay is a very popular mooring bay for local and visiting yachts, and is home for the Russell Boating Club. In early January every year the Russell Boating Club hosts ‘The Tall Ships’ race, followed in the evening by a sumptuous traditional ‘hangi’ , with a live band and dancing under a huge marquee.

Oneroa Bay (Long Beach) is an ocean beach just a 10 minute walk over to the east side of the peninsular. The adjacent Waitata Beach is a nudy beach - for those sun-loving bods ! Tapeka Point is another popular ocean beach, about 5 minutes drive to the northern tip of the Russell peninsular.
