COROMANDEL COASTAL WALKWAY

 

 

 

 

Join us on this full day tour to the rugged and remote northern Coromandel. Come where rental vehicles may not go!
You are collected at your accommodation in Coromandel Town at 8.30am, and taken up the Pohutukawa-fringed coastal road to the tip of the peninsula. The views are breathtaking. From there you embark on a 10km walk (3-4hrs) from Fletchers Bay to Stony Bay, and are met with refreshments. There is time to relax and have a swim before returning to Coromandel Town.
This tour has been described as "a day with a golden edge", and "the best day I've had in New Zealand."
See the website for full details, and for other tours or charters on offer.
