Cape Kidnappers area is beautiful. Take a walk, visit the Gannett flock, stop in at the cafebar grab some gifts from the gift shop. The food is lovely, staff are super friendly, set in peaceful surroundings and often they have live music playing.
Cape Kidnappers is a craggy, but stunning, peninsula named in commemoration of an incident during Captain Cook’s 1769 voyage. Maori traders seized Cook’s Tahitian cabin boy who they thought was being held against his will. When Cook’s men fired on the Maori canoe, the cabin boy escaped and returned to the ship. The iconic pale cliffs of Cape Kidnappers are viewable from the full length of Marine Parade in Napier, and are especially eye-catching in the late afternoon sun.

The Gannet colony is a must see on Cape Kidnappers. There is also a very exclusive golf course out there.
