The Matakana Country Park hosts a wide range of activities for children, a Saturday farmers market, the RD6 Restaurant, Country Kitchen Cafe and Art Gallery. The gallery is where local and national artists exhibit their works for purchase. Paintings, sculpture (wood and stone), glass, multi-media, clay, ceramic and jewellery all a very high quality.
The Cape Rodney-Okakari Point lies north of Auckland and offers some of the best snorkelling and scuba diving opportunities.
The University of Auckland's Leigh Marine Laboratory is based next to the reserve. Its scientists make regular studies to discover how a marine ecosystem functions without harvesting or intervention.
