Welcome to my new Hawkes Bay community. I'm looking forward to getting lots of people in here so I can make heaps of new people.
The first thing I wanna recommend about Hawkes Bay are all the awesome golf courses. I love golf so this is a great place to live! Its really cheap to play here compared to a lot of other places in NZ. It only costs me about $600NZ a year to play as much as I want at my local course, Maraenui Golf Club, which is 5mins drive from the middle of Napier. There are about 15 courses with in about 1hour from Napier or Hastings, including Cape Kidnappers, one of NZ top courses.
All you golfers out there, hope we see you in Hawkes Bay soon!
