Historic 110 year old house right on the estuary. Formerly the home of the fishing station manager, servicing Sea Cliff asylum with seafood.
Right on the river's edge at Karitane. You couldn't get any closer to the water.
The estuary provides a safe tidal swimming area for you and your family. Bring your fishing rods and come and play. We have kayaks for you to use. At low tide, enjoy hunting for crabs with the kids or dig for cockles for your dinner. You might see Harold, the resident sea lion in Karitane Harbor.
Put your feet up with a book and a cold drink on the deck while your BBQ lunch is cooking.

Summary: Thanks so much for letting us stay at the Pink Pipi house. It was perfect for half of our sports team to stay in, with the other half staying at the Kota Cottage next door. Loved the kayaks etc and the kitchen was perfect.
