Shorebirds are here all year round, the highest numbers are present from January to March. The Shorebird Center is open 9-5 but you can go and see the birds whenever the tide is in.

The Shorebird Centre has overnight accommodation; self-contained units as well as bunkrooms for hire. Stay with us us while you check out New Zealand's shorebirds.

The best time to view the birds is within two hours either side of the high tide. Once the tide drops, the birds will go far out on the mudflats to feed.
