Welcome to Ōpunakē

Ōpunakē is a cool little surf town on Surf Highway 45. Situated 64 km south-west of New Plymouth and 43 km north-west of Hāwera, with a 2013 population of 1,335.

A great little service town in provincial Taranaki, surrounded by dairy farmers, the mighty Taranaki Mountain Maunga and some of the best surf spots in the world.

Explore the 7 km Ōpunakē Loop Trail by bike or foot, see stunning views of our rugged coastline and visit the black sand Ōpunakē beach. Maybe catch a movie at the beautifully restored Everybody’s Theatre.

Feeling peckish, then grab some Fish n Chips or visit one of the cafes or pubs along the main street.
