Waitara sits at the mouth of the Waitara River on the north Taranaki coast, a short drive from New Plymouth. The disputed sale of the Pekapeka block here sparked the first Taranaki War in 1860, and the town's story is central to New Zealand history. Today it is a working river town with surfcasting off the moles, a strong league tradition and a main street serving the surrounding dairy country.
