About Katikati
Katikati is a Bay of Plenty township famous for its mural art and horticulture. Located between Tauranga and Waihi, it offers a warm climate, rivers and harbour inlets, and a welcoming community.
Bay of Plenty Region
The Bay of Plenty Region covers a sweeping stretch of eastern North Island coastline, known for golden beaches, geothermal zones and fertile farmland. It was named “Bay of Plenty” by explorer James Cook after he noted its abundant food supplies, and the region still retains strong links with Māori heritage, with many iwi (tribes), hapū and marae present. Agriculture, forestry and tourism are pillars of the regional economy, and the region also offers strong lifestyle appeal with sunshine, surf-friendly seas and a mix of medium-sized towns. For schools seeking to attract international students, Bay of Plenty offers a laid-back yet active setting, combining regional amenity with accessibility.
