Paihia to Opua


I misread the map on my phone.   I thought it said the trail from Paihia to Opua was 2.4 miles.   It in fact read 2.4 to the head of the sail.  And then 2.6+ to Opua itself.  No worries.  It was a great hike with the Pilgrim.  Hills and valleys, tiny little beaches, thick canopies of trees and then a walk over a bridge through what looked like a mangrove swamp.  The reward: a visit to a beautiful little waterfront surrounded by boats.  And then a second reward: a fantastic lunch in a little cafe.
