Day 2: Auckland to Coromandel
Leaving the big smoke of Auckland behind, we head to the Coromandel Peninsula, a veritable paradise of beautiful beaches and misty rainforests. The drive here is spectacular – the road twists and turns dramatically as it follows the coastline, and the ocean gets clearer and more pristine before your eyes. Get your cameras ready – the views are magnificent!
We arrive in the Coromandel with plenty of time for your guide to show you around. The Coromandel is home to the famous Hot Water Beach and thousands visit each year to dig their own personal hot tub. If the tide times allow, we’ll grab our buckets and spades and get busy digging!
