Just north of the Waitara township, the Waitara River is a very popular fishing spot with the locals and there is a good chance of bagging yourself a great catch.

Fishing can be done both in and around the river mouth, and there are snapper, herring and kahawai around in the area.

The beach nearby is also great for swimming, and kayaking, and the fishing is great for beginner and advanced fishers alike.

Waitara River Mouth is a kind of hidden gem for fishing for those who are unfamiliar to the Waitara area. There are always locals down there trying to get their fill, and why not? The river mouth has an abundance of different species of fish, especially kahawai. Be aware that this river doesn’t advise swimming so use it as a great fishing spot for yourself and a few mates.
