About

Estuary Arts Centre serves North Island from 214 Hibiscus Coast Highway in Orewa 0931. Visitors rate it 4.6 out of 5 across 249 reviews, a strong record for an arts centre on the Hibiscus Coast. Its website, http://www.estuaryarts.org/, carries the programme.

Orewa sits on the Hibiscus Coast north of Auckland, and the town is within reach of the city's motorway network. Auckland, Hamilton, Tauranga and Rotorua lie to the south and east, while Wellington, Napier and New Plymouth are further afield. The centre's position on the highway makes it easy to fold into a drive north of Auckland.

New Zealand cooking features lamb, dairy and seafood, including green-lipped mussels, bluff oysters and crayfish. The North Island has a volcanic plateau with hot springs and geysers, and the Southern Alps run down the South Island.

Tūī, kererū and other native birds are common, and dolphins, fur seals and seabirds are seen around the coast. Polynesian settlers reached New Zealand around the thirteenth century, and British colonisation followed from 1840. The arts centre's Orewa address places it within the town's main coastal strip.
