What makes someone dedicate decades of their life to welcoming strangers into their backyard?


For over ten years, James Johnston has welcomed family campers and Te Araroa trail walkers to Nikau Bay, a secluded campsite near Whangarēi built by hand using reclaimed native wood.


Beyond running the camp, James actively maintains the local trail and supports conservation efforts for the endangered Australasian Bittern.


In this episode of Te Araroa Tales, James shares why he chose to put down roots in this quiet corner of Aotearoa 30+ years ago, the story behind creating Nīkau Bay, and why the native Nīkau palm holds a special place in his heart.
