One person has died at the scene of a serious crash on the outskirts of Ngunguru along the Tūtūkākā Coast.

Two cars were involved in the crash near an s-bend on Ngunguru Rd shortly after 10am.

The road is closed and diversions are in place via Kaiatea Rd. Police advised motorists to avoid the area.

A Hato Hone St John spokesperson said an ambulance and rapid response vehicle were dispatched to the scene. The Whangārei Fire Brigade also attended the crash alongside police.
