View the Full Gallery & Listing Details: https://www.kaurilodge.com/ ABOUT THE AREA Okitu is a premier coastal suburb located on the northeastern edge of Gisborne, New Zealand. Renowned for its stunning position at the northern end of Wainui Beach, it is one of the first places in the world to see the sunrise each day. The area is defined by its rugged, pristine coastline and a laid-back lifestyle that attracts a mix of professional families, retirees, and world-class surfers drawn to its consistent and powerful ocean breaks. The geography of Okitu is a dramatic blend of sea and soil, where the Pacific Ocean meets steep, bush-clad hills. A highlight of the local landscape is the Okitu Bush Scenic Reserve, which offers well-maintained walking tracks through native forest. Hikers are rewarded with panoramic views from lookout platforms that span the entire sweep of Wainui Beach and out toward the horizon, often spotting native birds like the tui and kereru along the way. While Okitu feels like a secluded retreat, it is remarkably connected to the amenities of Gisborne city. Following State Highway 35 (the Pacific Coast Highway) for just 8 km south brings residents into the heart of town, where the region’s famous Chardonnay vineyards and rich Māori heritage sites—such as Titirangi (Kaiti Hill)—are located. This proximity allows Okitu to maintain its quiet, residential character without sacrificing access to urban commerce, healthcare, and education. For those traveling from further afield, the gateway to this coastal paradise is Gisborne Airport (GIS). Located approximately 12 km southwest of Okitu in the suburb of Elgin, the airport is famous for making Okitu an accessible destination for domestic and international visitors seeking a quintessentially Kiwi beach experience.
