With two beaches voted in the Top 10 in New Zealand by Trip Advisor, Mount Maunganui and Tauranga city have it all – and more…

Welcome to the coastal Bay of Plenty – one of New Zealand’s favourite destinations and fastest growing regions in the country. Located in New Zealand’s ‘Golden Triangle’ bordered by Auckland, Hamilton and Tauranga, the area boasts the best of all worlds.

This area is steeped in culture and history and is renowned for its surf beaches, sunshine, fertile land and friendly people.

Today the Port of Tauranga is one of the biggest in the country and Mount Maunganui is a favourite stop for cruise ships sailing around New Zealand. Papamoa has developed into a major residential area and our smaller towns of Waihi Beach, Katikati, Te Puke and Ohope are popular places to live and play.

People of all ages love coming here to swim in our warm ocean waters, relax on our white sandy beaches and explore our many outdoor, artistic and cultural treasures.

Today, the Bay of Plenty is the perfect mix of cosmopolitan city living and beach resort. We look forward to welcoming you too.
