Hawke's Bay - Te Matau-a-Māui

Hawke's Bay is an incredibly beautiful part of the world occupying around 14,000 square kilometres on the east coast of New Zealand. It's a fusion of simplicity and sophistication, centred around the cities of Napier and Hastings and is based on three naturally occurring ingredients: a climate with Mediterranean leanings, an ability to grow all manner of things, and an irrepressible enthusiasm amongst the locals for making the most of the abundant resources at their fingertips.

Napier is a city by the sea, internationally renowned for its depiction of Art Deco architecture. Napier is a reinvented city post the 1931 Hawke's Bay earthquake and its stories are richly told by enthusiastic locals.

The Hastings district is a geographically diverse area that takes in Cape Kidnappers, coastal Waimārama, Te Mata Peak, the village of Havelock North and the Heretaunga Plains.
