The recreational area at Himatangi Beach was the initiative of the Himatangi Beach Progressive Society Inc. Trampolining became popular in New Zealand in the 1960s, and in 1966 a trampoline area was developed. Four trampolines were set into the ground within a fenced area. In 1971 the number of trampolines was increased to six.
