WHANGAMATA
One of the best surfing spots in New Zealand, this popular seaside holiday resort is located on the east coast of the stunning Coromandel Peninsula. Whangamata is famous for its unique combination of beach and forest. The spectacular ocean beach provides some of the best surfing breaks, and yet safest swimming in New Zealand. Sea conditions suitable for all are available along its four kilometre length or in the safe harbours that lie to the north and south. With construction starting shortly on an approved 200 berth marina, and easy driving to Auckland, Hamilton, and Tauranga, Whangamata is a town that has it all.
