The sun dipped low over Uretiti Beach as campers and beachgoers gathered to welcome New Year’s Eve 2026 in classic Northland summer style. From roaming barefoot along the 5 km stretch of golden sand to laughter and music spilling from tents and picnic spots, the day was filled with carefree joy and salty‑air vibes.
Our photography team, Askipar – Alexis Petit, Max Rogers and Connor Whiteley captured the spirit of the night from Uretiti’s world-famous Daddy’s Bar and beyond!
