Opononi Dolphin Lodge
Visit our amazing location on the Twin Coast Discovery Route.
Opononi Dolphin Lodge owners John and Sue are proud to offer a clean and modern interior combined with a superb location, opposite a beach reserve on the edge of the spectacular Hokianga Harbour on Northland's west coast.
During the day you can sandboard on the dunes across the harbour, go deep-sea fishing, coastal-walking or visit Tane Mahuta - the giant kauri tree in the Waipoua Forest, which is located only 20-minutes drive away. Then in the evening, sit back and enjoy the breathtaking sunsets and our friendly Kiwi hospitality.
The West Coast diamond in the North awaits you!
