Museums
Along the Hikurangi–Tutukaka coast, two hidden-gem museums tell stories as rich as the landscape itself. The Hikurangi Historical Museum honours the area’s coal-mining past and wartime history, preserving war-memorial rolls, machinery, photographs, and community memories.
Just a short drive north at Hukerenui, the Jack Morgan Museum celebrates the pioneering spirit with its collection of vintage farm tools, stationary engines, and early settler artefacts.
Both are volunteer-run and deeply local ~ perfect for a quiet, meaningful stop as you explore the coast and connect with Northland’s heritage.
