Welcome to the Front Space at Tatapouri Bay – where the rhythm of the ocean sets the tone for movement, connection, and creativity. Nestled alongside our oceanfront café and just steps from the sand, this beautiful open-air space is where we bring people together to move, breathe, connect, and celebrate.
From energising sunrise yoga in Gisborne to cold plunge sessions, local fitness classes, creative makers markets, and soulful live music by the sea – there’s always something happening on our beachfront.
We’re building a calendar that reflects the vibrant spirit of our coastal community, inviting locals and travellers alike to show up just as they are.
