Situated
right on the coast overlooking a magnificent
swimming beach, Opunake is
the central service area for the surrounding
farming community and the central town in
Coastal Taranaki.
As
well as having one of the richest
dairying pasture in New Zealand,
the discovery of oil and gas in Taranaki
has further added to the prosperity
of the coast. The Maui Production
Station at Oaonui, its offshore platform
and the Ammonia/Urea Plant at Kapuni
both bring business to the area.
Mt Egmont
National Park draws tourists from all over
New Zealand and further afield. With its
numerous mountain walks and well equipped
huts, Mt Taranaki is a year round attraction
to the tramper as well as a popular ski field.
For the sports
enthusiast, the coast offers great surf breaks,
deep sea
fishing, boating, windsurfing - in fact virtually
any sport. Opunake itself,
because of its relaxed lifestyle, has attracted
a large number of retired people as well
as holiday makers.
It is a friendly community
with numerous facilities and activities.
These include a community owned picture theatre,
indoor heated swimming pool and an active
theatre group which all help contribute to
a strong community spirit.
