Shakespear Regional Park is an open sanctuary at the tip of the narrow Whangaparaoa Peninsula of North Island, New Zealand. The nature park is famous for several walking trails, relaxed coastlines, bays and cliffs with beautiful views of the Hauraki Gulf and its islands. The park has camping spots equipped with cottages, lodges and tents. Recent developments show that the park is now an open bird sanctuary inhabited by some of the rarest species of New Zealand species, which migrate to the park from the wildlife sanctuary island of Hauraki Gulf, Tiritiri Matangi.
One could engage in several activities at Shakespear Regional Park, like camping at the campsites, walking various tracks, fishing at the bays, relaxing on the beaches and visiting a few heritage spots. The park is also covered by farmland that rears cattle and sheep. The picnic areas include the Army Bay and Okoromai Bay picnic sites. The park is hence known to be a combination of conservation, recreation and farming. The park is also home to a waterfall named Gully Waterfall and a lookout spot that offers a 360-degree view of the Hauraki Gulf. Shakespear Regional Park is known to be New Zealand’s most accessible and most visited open Sanctuary.
