Useful information

This is list of the most commonly requested community services. If you think something is missing and should be added, send us an email and we'll make sure the listing is updated.

One of the special things about the Bay of Islands - and indeed the rest of New Zealand - is how welcoming the residents are to those who are "just visting". We are proud of our country and we want you to have a memorable stay here. And that includes making sure you have easy access to the day-to-day services that we all use, residents and visitors alike.
