Kaipara Coast Sculpture Gardens

Wonderful, cared for gardens with an easy walk with lots of interesting signposting for the art works and the trees and plants. Excellet plant shop too, with friendly staff. We didn't get to stop at the cafe but it looked great. Will definitely go again.

Amazing family getaway!

Such a great opportunity for your children to experience art and nature! The Sculpture trail is an engaging promenade through different plant species and contemporary art. My kids had something to discover at every turn of the path. The warmth and friendliness of the staff (David and Georgina's daughters) is a plus.

Enjoyable day.

We were welcomed by the Garden's staff. Enjoyable walk through the Sculpture trail on dry tracks and the sounds of birds and cicadas. Views over the Kaipara Harbour. A coffee at the Cafe before buying a Yacon for my garden.

Pleasant Bush Walks.

Not many sculptures at present as they are doing a change of exhibits. If you can spare the time do the 2 bush walks (takes about 1 1/2 hours for both) Friendly helpful staff.
