Sun FM 106.5
Sun FM 106.5 is your local community radio station based in Whakatane – New Zealand, broadcasting from our studios in Louvain Street out to the Bay of Plenty region.
It’s today’s hits, with some characters on the radio providing you with national and local news, weather, the odd dry joke and giving you the chance to win some cool prizes.
We are excited this year to be selected as a finalist in the New Zealand radio awards as a finalist for Station of the year non surveyed and would like to thank you for supporting us.
