Napier Information

The port city of Napier is a popular tourist destination with its sweeping views of Hawke’s Bay, its many festivals, surrounding vineyards, orchards and a warm dry climate. Napier was struck by a severe earthquake in 1931 which then saw major reconstruction of the city in the art deco style of architecture fashionable at the time. As a result, Napier looks strikingly different to other cities in New Zealand and is a mecca for art deco enthusiasts from around the world. Many of the shops sell art and curiosities from that period. Napier has some charming art galleries and museums to help you soak up the rich history and culture of the region. Soak up the sea whilst taking a stroll or bike ride along Marine Parade–or follow the pathway all the way to Hastings and Havelock North! Napier has a surprising number and variety of dining and cafe options, from relaxed outdoor eateries, to the sumptuous decor and fine cuisine of an historic converted church. Located on the port side of Napier is, the area of Ahuriri. It is well known for its harbourside cafes and restaurants during the day and its vibrant bar scene at night.
