EVER SEEN A ROCKET LAUNCH?
Wairoa is located on the east coast of the North Island in northern Hawke’ s Bay. Not only does Wairoa have a lot of natural beauty to offer; some really exciting things are happening here.
The Wairoa District is home to the only rocket launch site in New Zealand. Rocket Lab will be launching commercial rockets from the tip of the Māhia peninsula, into the lower earth orbit, which is truly exciting.
This is the perfect opportunity for all aviation fans to combine a trip to Wairoa with the viewing of a rocket launch.
