We’re coasties—born and bred in Tolaga Bay, where the ocean meets the land, and life is as real as it gets. This isn’t just a place we live; it’s a way of life. Out here on the East Coast, things move a little slower, the air is fresher, and the people are as genuine as they come.
There’s a deep connection to the land and sea—whether it’s throwing out a line at the Tolaga Bay Wharf, diving for kaimoana, or gathering food straight from the whenua. We’ve been raised to live off the land, respect our surroundings, and take in the beauty that’s everywhere—from rolling green hills to golden beaches that stretch for miles.
It’s a safe, family-friendly place, where kids grow up barefoot, riding bikes until the streetlights come on, and everyone knows your name. Sunrises over the bay are worth waking up for, and the night skies are untouched by city lights, offering a view of the stars you won’t find anywhere else.
This place has heart, history, and the kind of beauty you don’t just see—you feel. If you’re looking for a break from the noise of the world, this is it. Welcome to Tolaga Bay.
