Mangōnui is a historic fishing village with friendly cafes and a wide range of water-based activities. It's next to several popular holiday beaches.

The fishing village of Mangōnui is the main centre of Doubtless Bay. Once a busy whaling and trading town, Mangōnui has a collection of charming 150-year-old buildings that now house cafés, art and craft shops and the famous fish and chips shop.

A three-kilometre walk around the village takes in 18 heritage buildings. There are also walks to picturesque Mill Bay and the site of Rangikapiti Pā, an ancient Maori fort with commanding views. Sailing, fishing and dive trips operate from Mangōnui Harbour.
