Havelock North

Havelock North is a town in the Hawkes Bay region on the east coast of New Zealand's North Island.

Understand

Havelock North is a 'suburb' of Hastings, but the locals consider themselves separate. It strives to maintain a 'village' feel about the town despite its size.

Get in

• A variety of turnoffs from the main highway through Hastings.

See

• The half a dozen or so really close winerys.

Buy

• Havelock North has many privately owned upmarket stores and is the "trendy" place to go shopping in Hawkes Bay, besides Napier.
