Eastland Region
Hugging the sea to one side and the Raukumara Ranges to the other,
Eastland is a region of genuine experiences that link people and the land. The same fertile lands that make
Eastland renown for its wines offer a host of outdoor activities from horse trekking, hunting, surfing, golf and whitewater rafting. Only in
Eastland do surf, Maori and wine cultures blend seamlessly to form the inviting essence of this region.
