A Splash of Colour Along Bay Road

There’s something fresh and exciting happening along Bay Road!

If you’ve noticed a bit more colour around Kilbirnie, Rongotai, and Lyall Bay lately, that’s no accident—we’ve given the area a vibrant refresh, bringing the energy of our community to life.

We know how much locals and visitors love the mix of great shopping, cosy cafés, and unbeatable surf, so we wanted to reflect that in a way that feels more us. Thanks to feedback from our recent member survey, we heard loud and clear that you wanted more colour, more excitement, and a stronger identity for our area.

Our new flag designs now add a dynamic feel to the streets, celebrating everything that makes KRL special. And with our tagline—Shop. Savour. Surf.—we’ve captured the essence of what you’ll find here: a place where you can browse unique stores, enjoy fantastic food and coffee, and soak up the coastal lifestyle.

Come and see what’s new—great shopping, delicious food, and a fantastic coastal lifestyle await! 🛍️☕🌊
