QUALITY ASSURANCE
Look for the Qualmark, New Zealand tourism's official mark of quality.





 

Entertainment involving the ocean comes with the territory. You can enjoy fishing, scenic boat trips, sea kayaking, diving, snorkelling and swimming. The Coromandel is also a walker's paradise - coastal walkways and inland bush walks lead to giant kauris, waterfalls, mining relics and secret beaches.

Seasonal Tips

DURING YOUR VISIT

Cheese aficionados shouldn't go past the Matatoki Cheese Factory, just south of Thames. At Piako Ostrich farm you can view egg incubation and get close to the chicks and breeding birds. Meat tasting is part of the tour and the shop sells various ostrich products. The Coromandel is famous for its seafood, particularly the mussels that are farmed in the area. Stop at one of the mussel shops or order a mussel dish at a local restaurant.




Your Words

Perfect for a lunch-time pit-stop, Thames offers an abundance of cafés along its bustling main street.
