If you are out in a boat this Summer...
Respect the locals.
Domestic tourism is likely to see the Bay of Island’s marine environment busier than ever this year. Whilst we all like to enjoy the sunshine and unique marine environment the Bay has to offer, we all have a responsibility to protect what makes it so special.
Te Pēwhairangi/Bay of Islands bottlenose dolphins spend 86% of their day with boats. The population has sadly declined by 91% since 1997 to just 26 individuals.
There are marine mammal regulations to reduce the effect boats have on the bottlenose dolphins, and other marine mammals. Following these regulations is crucial to marine mammals continuing their normal behaviours critical to survival – such as feeding, resting and nursing their young.

What word sums up 2024, neighbours?
If 2020 was the year of lockdowns, banana bread, and WFH (work from home)....
In one word, how would you define 2024?
We're excited to see what you come up with!
Needing a place to live , long term
Hello to all , I hope you are all having an amazing Christmas holiday season and being safe, I live in Peria which I have lived for over 11 years. My daughter is selling the property and I need to find me a permanent home . My preferred area is in Peria as I have made many friends, I need a. self contained 1 bedroom accommodation. If there is someone out there who need a quiet non smoking and pet free tenant, let me know, many thanks John Phillips ( Johno)
