Places visited:

Paihia: We stayed in this town the first night we arrived at the Bay of Islands. There is not a lot in the town, but very nice hikes around the town. You can catch the ferry to Russell from the town.

Russell: Take the ferry from Paihia to Russell. A nice town to hike and even better hikes in the surrounding area. Great beaches with soft sand. At low tide you can hike along the shore, at high tide head into the hills.
