Why Coromandel
- Home to Cathedral Cove, one of New Zealand's most iconic landmarks
- Hot Water Beach lets you dig your own natural hot spring in the sand at low tide
- Relaxed, uncrowded alternative to the South Island's tourist-heavy spots
The Coromandel Peninsula juts out from the North Island's east coast, offering pristine beaches, native bush, and some of New Zealand's most iconic coastal scenery. It is a laid-back escape from Auckland with natural attractions that cost little or nothing to enjoy. Cathedral Cove and Hot Water Beach are two of the most photographed spots in the country.
