Napier, New Zealand - Hawkes Bay - Beach Town Resort

December 30, 2010 - Napier, Hawkes Bay, New Zealand...beach resort town at Hawkes Bay...
This is a very beautiful beach side resort town, almost have the same ambiance as Catalina Island, the City Centre is located right off the beach, surrounded by cute shops, although most were closed, the Kiwis know how to celebrate the Holidays, they take off work from December 23rd to January 10th, it was only a handful of small shops open this time of the year...

The Napier Dome is perhaps the most well known landmark in Napier, right across from the Beach Amphitheater where they celebrate the New Years and Fireworks.. 

The Napier Beach Amphitheater is enclosed by these roman pillars surrounding the stage where famous performers have done concerts..

 Breaker's restaurant at Napier is a favorite hang out for the locals... I would compare the food just like Fridays, burgers and comfort foods, indeed very tasty is their beer battered Fish & chips, for some reason I was a little disappointed that they did not have Tartar sauce or Malt vinegar, instead they serve their chips with tomato sauce or mayo... WARNING! the price is almost $20 per dish...
At Breakers, ordering at the bar, they serve liquor and local wines as well as beer and other beverages, sorry, strawberry lemonade is not in the menu...
