Waikanae, with its 8 660 inhabitants, is the borough of Wellington. It is a nice small town with many craftsmen. Waikanae's main attraction is Nga Manu Nature Reserve, which spans 15 hectares (birds and reptiles). You can also walk through the Hemi Matenga Memorial Park or hike the Reikorangi Valley of the Reikorangi Valley. Between Waikanae and Paraparaumu, a few kilometres away, the coast is only a succession of beaches (Waikanae Beach, Paraparaumu Beach, Raumati Beach) which make this region a popular tourist destination of the Kiwifruit.
