Local Attractions

We aim to make your stay in the Bay of Plenty the best part of your New Zealand holiday. We are one of the sunniest towns in the country, and have the best that New Zealand can offer --- Beautiful beaches, stunning scenery, native bush walks, water and ocean based activities, all sports and out-door activities, adventure and "thrill" activities, as well as excellent shopping, and a superb range of bars and restaurants to suit every taste. We have several theatres, cinemas, ten pin bowling, and other indoor sports. There are several good golf courses to choose from.

Enjoy trips on the water on our luxury cruiser. Fish abound in the Bay of Plenty, so take a fishing trip or full game fishing charter and catch a marlin! This is one of the game fish capitals of the world! Learn to surf or windsurf, or try your hand at land yachting or white water rafting. Do a Bungy jump or ride on the beach alongside the Pacific Ocean. Enjoy any of the endless family fun activities the Bay of Plenty has to offer.

We are within easy reach of the beautiful Coromandel with its beautiful ranges, and fantastic coves and beaches, as well as the thermal wonderland of Rotorua and the lakes. Taupo is less than two hours away and only a short further distance are the mountains and ski fields of Ruapehu. Ask for our list of over 50 local sights and activities! We are delighted to assist with booking or arranging trips or days out. We are sure that you will not be able to do everything you want to, and so look forward to seeing you next year!
