Anawhata

Only accessible by foot, Anawhata's rural scenery, black sand beaches and jagged cliffs provided an atmospheric setting for filming.

Kumeū

Auckland’s flagship facility is Kumeū Film Studios, boasting two sound stages, a large warehouse stage, extensive workshops and construction space, covered dive tank, exterior ocean surface tank and 30 acres of forest backlot.

Muriwai

Muriwai, another coastal location, boasts expansive ocean views, black sand beaches, and large surf waves. Amenities such as the surf life club make it a practical yet visually stunning location for filming, with dramatic cliffs and coastal landscapes adding to its appeal.

Piha

With its volcanic black sand, towering 'Lion Rock', and rough seas, Piha is an exciting destination for filmmakers and tourists alike.

Woodhill Forest

Woodhill Forest offers a contrast with its lush forest scenery, including coastal areas, mystical trails, and ethereal landscapes. Privately owned by Ngā Maunga Whakahii o Kaipara, this location provides a great wilderness setting, blending coastal and ocean scenes with the enchanting beauty of the forest.
