Why go

Vaipahi brings water, planting and cultural interpretation together in an accessible garden setting. The lower garden provides a different experience from the longer trails rising into the hills, so choose the short visit or a hike deliberately. For a coastal drive, the garden and waterfall are the natural focus.

  • Water garden paths
  • Waterfall in the lower garden
