The Coromandel is a great scenic highlight of the Pacific Coast Highway. Right now temperatures are still fairly mild and you’ll have most of the beautiful beaches all to yourself! During these early spring months, the peninsula is a great place to explore and find peace and solitude. http://www.discover-new-zealand.co.uk/coro/

 Stay at…
Kuaotunu Bay Lodge
Based in Whitianga, this delightful lodge is set amongst 4 acres of native bush and pasture, with panoramic views of the peninsula and Mercury Island. You’ll get your own private decks with views out over the ocean and you’re feet will be itching to hit the sand so it’s a good job the beach is only down the garden path! A range of great activities are also available. Prices from £101 per room per night based on 2 people sharing, from 1st September (breakfast included).
