The Pohutukawa tree, with its brilliant red flowers blooming in summer, is known as New Zealand's Christmas tree (our Xmas is in summer!). The trees are prolific along the coastline of Ohope. Hence the slogan....pohutukawa paradise.

This sign is at the Wainui Road approach to the beach.
Type of community: Town
