Parks & Nature
There is a great walk around the base of Mt Maunganui - you can also climb to the top if you're feeling energetic. It's a great place - either around the base, or from the top, to watch cruise ships coming and going, and to see the sweep of the bay. Parking is at a premium around that area in the summer though so be prepared to drive around a little - or take a bus from the road outside our house.

This is a stunning little township with great beach access and interesting coastline. Maketu pies are famous in this area. There is a lifesaver team on duty during regular hours over summer.

This is GREAT beach. Across the road from the Domain are several takeaway shops - you can get fish and chips or many other takeaways in the small center that has good parking. Swim between the flags for safe swimming.
