Carrington Farm

Carrington Farms is a beef fattening unit resting between 4 kilometres of secluded white sand beach, 900 acres of restored natural wetlands and the hillside vineyards of New Zealand's northern most winery, Karikari Estate.

Carrington Farms is committed to maintaining the natural environment and eco systems which are a part of this 3000 acre property, including an extensive restoration of the wetlands which has been planted with 10,000 native trees and bushes and preservation of the extensive beach property.

In addition to the immediately adjacent, well known Tokerau Beach's bathing and boating facilities, Carrington Farms is situated on 4 km (2.4 miles) of the secluded Karikari Beach, considered one of the most pristine, beautiful beaches in New Zealand. The powdery white sand is highlighted by spectacular dunes, some 15 metres high and emerald green surf blending into a deep blue ocean. Dolphin and whale sightings are common.

Carrington Farms is actively involved in programs designed to ecologically preserve the beach and wetlands and to enhance the bird life of both the dunes and wetlands area. The restored wetlands area is one of the largest privately owned area of its type and is home to thousands of birds of numerous species. This provides serious bird watchers with a unique locale for observing both land and sea bird life.
