Wander sandy beaches, swim, collect mussels, play in the waves on boogie boards, watch spectacular sunsets.In the winter watch wild seas from in front of the log burner in the cosy living room. Meet our friendly animals. There are rooms with seaviews, own bathroom and private deck. We can arrange boat trips to Kapiti Island.There is free parking on the street, and you can forget the car. The hostel is only a few minutes walk from the shops or to the beach, or the park.
