Katikati - A Unique NZ Town

Katikati - the historic New Zealand town in the Western Bay of Plenty. Filmed in conjunction with Katch Katikati.

Katikati ‘New Zealand’s Mural Town' - Bay of Plenty, New Zealand

The rural town of Katikati was founded by settlers from Ulster in Ireland, but the district was populated by Maori long before Europeans arrived.

In recent years, Katikati has called itself the ‘mural town’. More than 35 works of art in and around the main street - murals, sculptures and carvings - pay homage to the town's early Maori and pioneer residents, and its timber milling and farming heritage. There is also a magnificent tribute to the men and women who left the district to fight in overseas wars. You can pick up a mural guide map from the information centre.

Katikati is also home to a 'Haiku Pathway', boasting the largest collection of Haiku’s outside of Japan.

The local museum documents the growth of the town with photographs and displays of artefacts. Boutique arts and crafts galleries and, in harvest time, roadside stalls overflowing with fresh produce, are a delightful distraction.

Flat White Cafe Waihi Beach

I seriously love the Flat White Cafe situated right on Waihi Beach. Some good brainstorming, filming, and of course superb coffee and food!

I actually went there two days in a row to grab a great coffee from them - a flat white of course! :) Great cafe, people, and a superb view as well. Good spot to feel inspired!
