Set in Pou Tu o Te Rangi Harding Park overlooking Dargaville and the Northern Wairoa River, the Museum has 1800 square metres of exhibition space, telling fascinating stories of the Kauri Coast: from early Maori life represented by the 16-metre pre-European waka, the replica gum diggers camp, shipwreck relics recovered from Ripiro Beach to the masts of the ill-fated Greenpeace protest ship, the Rainbow Warrior. Picnic spots, walking tracks, cycle trail, Pa site, motorhome parking suitable for larger vehicles and other activities are all available in the park
