The Surf Highway 45
A 105-kilometer loop hugging Taranaki’s southwestern coast. From New Plymouth south to Hāwera, then back up if you’re circling.

One road touching two coasts — east and west. No rush, just the steady pull of beaches, forests, and quiet bays. You’ll drive it clockwise or counterclockwise. Most go…
