Historic Kopu Bridge open gates
Are you a keen photographer or birdwatcher? Do you love the early morning light? On Saturday 30th January, during Dawn to Dusk, Historic Kōpū Bridge’s gates will be open from 5.30am to 8.30pm. Photographers and birdwatchers love early morning and late afternoon and as well Dawn to Dusk is timed to coincide with a high tide at 9am. This is ideal for morning fishing either side of the high tide. For safety reasons, fishing will be restricted to just one passing bay from 8am to 10am, and numbers will be limited, so please check with a volunteer before you start fishing. Dawn to Dusk is a perfect opportunity to spend time on the historic bridge, the only surviving swing span in NZ. Include Historic Kōpū Bridge in you day out if you are attending Wings and Wheels at Thames Airfield (10am to 3pm).
