Take the short walk to the headland and see the remnants of two old Maori Pa sites (for overseas guests, see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/P%C4%81). The lines of the original terraces and defensive moat are still visible on the headland. Steep cliffs here (so take care) but awesome views!

Beautiful undeveloped beach surrounded by dense native bush. Walk across the stream at the west end of Whangapoua Beach and follow the coast to the marked path over the headland to New Chums. The Whangapoua side is stony and can be hard going but it is totally worth it.

Hahei's own beautiful beach. In summer be sure to check out the locals' boat-launching tractors lined up on the sand at the southern end near Wigmore Stream.
And some history: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hahei
"The name of the settlement of Hahei is derived from the Māori name for Mercury Bay, Te-Whanganui-A-Hei, or "The Great Bay of Hei". According to tradition, Hei was one of three brothers who arrived in New Zealand with Kupe. With his family he settled in the area of Oahei, which is now Hahei, and they became the ancestors of the Ngati Hei people..."

Getting Around
The ferry is a great way to get into Whitianga – it runs almost continuously until 11:30pm in summer, and is very good value. There are shuttles from Hahei in summer. The wharf is New Zealand's oldest stone wharf and there are other historic colonial and Maori sites within easy walking.
