Five minutes by car or an easy ten on the cycle trail, Ahuriri is a seaside port settlement on the other side of the Napier hill that has evolved rapidly from being the exclusive domain of mariners and sea dogs to a very cool satellite of Napier with its own unique vibe and a growing list of cafes, bars, restaurants, galleries, apartments, and boutique stores.

Gardens, Hawke's Bay. Art Deco architecture in Napier, Hawke's Bay. It is kilometres about four hours' drive north-east of Wellington City. Blessed with a sunny, Mediterranean style climate, Hawke's Bay is one of New Zealand's warmest, driest regions.
From the mountains, the land steps down towards the coast, flattening out to become the Heretaunga Plains. A number of wide rivers run swiftly to meet the blue Pacific Ocean. Hawke's Bay is loved for its sunny climate, fabulous beaches, sheltered coastal plains and long established vineyards.
It is also one of the country's largest pip fruit growing areas. The Hawke's Bay vineyards are all within a short distance of Napier and Hastings. More than 30 vineyards are open to the public for wine tasting. Many also operate cafes and restaurants in both indoor and outdoor settings. The region is especially known for its fine Chardonnay and Cabernet Sauvignon varieties. Another unique attraction is the gannet colony on the very tip of Cape Kidnappers, believed to be one of only two mainland gannet colonies in the world.
Gannets are large sea birds with long, pointed wings and golden-yellow heads.
