Located about 90 minutes drive from Auckland along the spectacular Pacific Coast Highway and a similar distance to the cities of both Rotorua and Tauranga, The Coromandel is one of New Zealand's premier holiday destinations.

The Coromandel's dramatic and unspoiled coast, with native pohutukawa trees on the western side and beautiful white sandy beaches on the east, offers endless opportunities for fishing, diving, boating, surfing and swimming.
The Coromandel's history is evident in mining relics, logging dams and ancient Maori pa sites. The past is also reflected in the charming colonial architecture and historic buildings preserved in several towns around the region. The Coromandel, with its inspirational natural beauty and peaceful environment, has long been a haven for artists and craftspeople.
