Mōkau · Mōkau

Mōkau sits at the mouth of the Mōkau River on the North Taranaki Bight, a small coastal town long regarded as a whitebait capital where the river runs thick with the catch each spring. Though it falls just inside the Waikato region in the Waitomo District, its community of interest leans south to New Plymouth, 90km down the coast. Whitebait fritters, surfcasting and the wild black-sand coast keep travellers stopping on the run between Taranaki and the King Country.
