Separated by a glistening harbour spanned by a vehicle bridge, Tauranga and Mount Maunganui are ideal for a beach holiday. One of New Zealand’s fastest-growing cities, Tauranga offers an idyllic lifestyle in a region bathed in sunshine. A buzzing harbourside shopping and dining precinct is perfect for al fresco dining. Tauranga Harbour is a popular stopover for cruise ships and it’s also the departure point for cruises and fishing charters. On the other side of the harbour, the isthmus of Mount Maunganui is named for the hill that rises dramatically from the coast – known to Maori as ‘Mauao’. A long white-sand beach overlooked by cafés and apartment-style accommodation makes this a hugely popular summertime destination.
