Ohope Beach

YOUR EXCLUSIVE VENUE

Surf & Sand is a stunning setting for weddings, celebrations, and events. Enclosed by 5 acres of beautiful, tranquil park-like settings, you will find the only disturbance to be the sound of the waves.

A UNIQUE DESTINATION

Situated at the end of an 11 kilometer stretch of land reaching out parallel with the beach and Ohiwa Harbour – the jewel in the crown – tucked in behind us, we are perfectly placed for your special event. Just 15 minutes from central Whakatane and only 25 minutes away from Whakatane airport.
