This week we parked up right on the beachfront at Matatā DOC Camp and settled in for a slower week by the ocean. We checked out nearby swimming spot Braemar Springs and the pumping Tarawera Falls near Kawerau. We even squeezed in a pretty special milestone… celebrating Rumi’s first birthday by the sea. 📍 Where we wandered: Braemar Springs · Tarawera Falls · Matatā coastline ⛺ Where we camped: Matatā DOC Camp Catch you on the next one, Luke, Jess, Ocie + Rumi #vanlifeNZ #nztravel #familyvanlife #slowtravel #vanlifenz #caravanlifestyle Bay of Plenty Want to support us?
