Waipu Beach
Waipu is a small town in Bream Bay in the Northland Region of New Zealand. The charming historical township is bursting with Scottish heritage. The local museum is full to the brim with immigrant treasures that came with the early settlers. A highlight of the town’s calendar is the annual Highland Games held at New Year. Just outside the town are the Waipu Caves, which contain a significant population of glowworms. Follow the coast to Waipu Cove, Langs Beach, and Mangawhai Heads and all the way you’ll enjoy stunning views of the Hen and Chickens Islands plus an endless parade of perfect waves breaking on clean white sand.
