Bon Accord Harbour
✨ Hidden gem
Bon Accord Harbour sits on the northern side of Kawau Island, offering one of the most sheltered anchorages in the Hauraki Gulf with good holding in calm, protected waters. The harbour has a genuine island-escape feel, with a handful of private baches dotting the shoreline and bush-covered hills all around. It's a popular spot to drop the hook and explore Kawau by dinghy, including the historic Mansion House and its famous wallaby population nearby.
