Dargaville Airfield from the East

The airfield has an active aero club that provides training in advanced microlights, and has a regular 'fly-in' lunch every Saturday which attracts aviators from New Zealand's North island.

It is a base for topdressing aircraft working the surrounding area, and has Avgas available with a "Z" swipecard.

Dargaville airfield is at sea level at the northern end of the large Kaipara harbour, forming a pair with the similar sea level West Auckland Airport, at Parakai at the southern end of the harbour some 50 miles away.
