The Waters Edge
Your Perfect Family Base on the Water’s Edge
Waters Edge is perfectly positioned for memorable family holidays, with a safe swimming beach just 50 metres away and a tidal estuary right at your doorstep. Located on a popular peninsula 10km north of Collingwood and 2.5km south of Pakawau Beach, this peaceful retreat offers a private setting surrounded by nature.
Dine outdoors with calming estuary views and the soundtrack of tūī and bellbirds attracted by the surrounding trees. With kayaking, water play, and easy swimming available when the tide is in — and beach exploring and shoreline strolls when it’s out — this is the ideal spot to unwind and enjoy Golden Bay’s natural beauty.
