About this property
Time and Tide at the Bach - Great Family Getaway.
Tide and Time at the Bach is a place where you can slow down and enjoy the simple things.
This sunny 3-bedroom getaway is just a short stroll from the sea and surrounded by natural beauty with elevated views out the harbour and across towards Ruakaka/Waipu.
Enjoy a cuppa on the deck, then set out to explore - paddle a kayak across the bay, wander the coastal tracks, climb Mount Manaia for breathtaking views, or head 10 minutes down the road to Ocean Beach for sand and surf. Then finish the day with a BBQ and time to reflect on the special memories made.
OUR SPACE
There is plenty of room to park a boat or jet ski with beach launching just a few minutes around the road. Whangarei Harbour is a great place for all water pursuits.
Wander down the private driveway (walking access only) to enjoy a swim, snorkel, kayak or paddleboard. In the evening you can relax and enjoy the sunset.
