Holidays in Tarata

Your last proper holiday feel like it was eons ago? Simple — book a ticket to Tarata and you'll be heading off in no time!

It lies 240 kilometres north of Wellington, the capital city of New Zealand.

Think about taking a picnic basket full of goodies for a relaxing lunch by the water at Mowhanau Beach or Oakura Beach.

You'll find an assortment of lovely natural sights around Tarata. Why not travel 30 kilometres to Egmont National Park? Alternatively, you can enjoy Mother Nature's handiwork at Paritutu Rock, 35 kilometres away.

Make sure you pack some black and yellow clothing so you can cheer on the local rugby union team, the Chiefs, at Yarrow Stadium. Located 30 kilometres away in New Plymouth, the stadium is also the home ground of the Taranaki Rugby Union Team.

Feel the icy breeze in your hair as you glide down the mountain at Turoa Ski Area. If you're a real powder hound, you'll also want to pack up the car and head to Manganui Ski Area.

How do you like the sound of the Sentry Hill Winery and the Taranaki Aviation, Transport & Technology Museum? These fantastic sights are in Waiongana, just 15 kilometres west of Tarata. Or perhaps Observatory and Saint Mary's Church are more your thing? To see them, travel to Tarurutangi, 19 kilometres to the west.

Travellers often make the trip to Stratford. This place is 20 kilometres away and pretty close to the Victoria Park Memorial, the Stratford Golf Course and the Te Kapua Park Racecourse. If you're staying a little while, remember to swing by the Taranaki Pioneer Village and the Percy Thomson Gallery.

Bank cards? Check. Passport? Check. But have you packed your appetite? With some delectable food and drink to sample in this destination, it's the one thing you shouldn't leave home without.

Do you love seafood? What about pork? Whether you're into them or not, they are two traditional ingredients commonly found in dishes here.

Ask one of the locals what to eat in Tarata and whitebait will probably be the first thing that rolls off their tongue. Hāngi (traditional Maori meat and vegetables) is another iconic local food you should try.

'Stressed' spelled backwards is 'desserts', and we don't believe in coincidences. There's no tastier way to wave goodbye to your worries than with hokey pokey (honeycomb-vanilla ice cream), a sweet treat that's often found on dining tables here.

Start your night in fine fashion with a splash of a local wine like syrah or chardonnay. Taste for character and complexity, or simply share a bottle with friends.

It's never easy to part with a region as stunning as Taranaki, but it is always ready to welcome you back.

From the centre of Tarata, it's roughly 240 kilometres north to Auckland International Airport (AKL). This is the closest airport. Make sure you allow yourself enough time to make your way there so you don't miss your flight.
