Dispute Cove
✨ Hidden gem
Dispute Cove is a tucked-away anchorage on the Rodney coastline, offering solid holding ground and a sheltered spot to drop the hook away from the bustle of busier harbours. The surrounding bush-clad hills give it a quietly remote feel, and you'll likely have the place mostly to yourself. It's a solid overnight option if you're working your way along this stretch of the upper Hauraki Gulf.
