Gore Bay is a coastal settlement about 8 kilometres (5 mi) from Cheviot, New Zealand.
There are two local camping grounds, each with beach access and business.
[citation needed] Of note is Cathedral Gully, a spectacular weathered clay canyon.
The cottage at 60 Moody Street that once belonged to Mrs. Eliza Robinson, wife of local runholder William 'Ready Money' Robinson, is registered by Heritage New Zealand as a Category II structure, with registration number 1769.
[2] The place name Gore Bay is not an official name but is a recorded name that is probably derived from Gore's Bay shown on Captain Cook's map of New Zealand as the bay between Banks Island and the southern island, T’avai Poenammoo.
