Whakatane Vacations

We get it, geography isn't everyone's specialty. If you're not sure where Whakatane sits on a map, it's wise to investigate its location before you venture out the door!

You'll find it about 260 miles (418 kilometers) to the northeast of the national capital, Wellington, and 19 miles (31 kilometers) northeast of Kawerau.

A big part of traveling is meeting new people, so why not make pals with some of the 19,000 locals who reside in this corner of Bay of Plenty?
