Matakana is just a tip of the iceberg for this region in term of beautiful places to visit, they hold a beautiful market I recommend visiting and have some unique bespoke little cinemas. Its an hour drive from here so make a day trip of it

If you new to Auckland go to North head and do the walk around the headland for some historic education about our involvement in the Great World Wars. You can also catch a ferry across to CBD for a wonder through the viaduct

Traveler advice
Getting around
The main type of public transport is AT bus Service.
https://at.govt.nz/bus-train-ferry/bus-services/ check out there website
I would personally hire a car as most destinations are not close to stop off points and everything is very spread out around here
What to pack
NZ weather can be sunny by morning and raining by night
Make sure to bring a bit of everything when it comes to clothing.
