All along the coastline you'll find gorgeous sandy beaches and small seaside communities where the pace of life is a little slower and there just seems to be more time to discover whats around and to appreciate Nature's gifts.

Mt Maunganui is a resort town with great surf beaches on one side and a protected bay on the other, perfect for kayaking, boating and swimming. There is a 3.8km (2.4 mile) track to the summit which amazing views of the coastline and surrounding countryside. Ohope Beach is just south of the town of Whakatane and is a great beach for families with great views of Motuhora Island. The Classic Flyers Aviation Museum is great for grown ups and kids alike with the chance to take a ride in a helicopter straight out of M.A.S.H or an exciting bi-plane flight. The Katikati Bird Gardens offer the chance to see some of New Zealand's most colourful and beautiful native bird species.

The climate is another reason the Bay of Plenty is such a popular destination. With one of the warmest climates and most days of sunshine in New Zealand the Bay of Plenty is warm and sunny in summer and mild in winter. It's the perfect place for a family vacation or a fun and exciting getaway for one or more!
