Description
Begin your day with a comfortable drive from Auckland through scenic farmland and coastal landscapes as you make your way to the Coromandel Peninsula.
Enjoy a scenic coastal walk along the Cathedral Cove Track, a well-maintained trail featuring breathtaking ocean views and native forest. At the end of the track, you’ll reach the famous Cathedral Cove—known for its natural rock arch, turquoise water, and dramatic cliffs.
Known for its stunning natural archway, crystal-clear water, and dramatic cliffs, Cathedral Cove is one of New Zealand’s most photographed locations. Enjoy a beautiful coastal walk and free time for photos, or simply relaxing by the beach.
Experience one of the only places in the world where you can dig your own natural hot pool right on the sand. Geothermal water bubbles up through the beach at low tide, creating a fun and unique spa-like experience.
