Gisborne Sea-Valley Info, Gisborne

Anuara Bay is situated on the east coast of New Zealand's North Island. This area combines high altitude ranges with sparkling beaches and river walks. Popular recreational day activities include walking tracks such as the Anaura Bay, Te Kuri Farm and Otoko Walkways.

Gisborne, the first city in the world to see the sun each day, is located on the sunny East Coast of the North Island. The Maori name for the district is Tairawhiti which means "The coast upon which the sun shines across the water". Kaiti Beach, near the city, was where the Maori immigrational waka, Horouta, landed; and is also the first European landing place in New Zealand.
