Summary: Charming Kiwi Beach Bach with Fantastic Beach and Ocean Views
Bach or holiday home, 3 Bedrooms, 1 Bathrooms, (Sleeps 6) A few steps over the road from WitsEnd and you are walking on the golden sands of Ligar Bay which is a beautiful, safe, sandy beach.

Ligar Bay is approximately 10 minutes drive from Takaka, a short drive to great walking tracks, the northern gateway of the Abel Tasman National Park and local attractions You can check out eateries in nearby Pohara or further afield if you want to combine dining with exploring Golden Bay. You can launch your boat at nearby Tarakohe Harbour or at Tata Beach or you could take a leisurely paddle around the Bay on WitsEnd's kayaks, maybe out to the Tata Islands to spot the seals or potter around in the Estuary at high tide. WitsEnd is furnished for comfort and that special 'holiday feel'. To enhance your stay, there are also mountain bikes available for exploring nearby areas and board and card games to bring out the competitive holiday spirit.
