What you can expect

  • Travel through the stunning Coromandel Peninsula, renowned for its pristine beaches, native forests, dramatic coastline, and laid-back seaside charm. Relax while your expert local guide navigates the winding coastal roads, sharing stories, local knowledge, and hidden gems along the way.

    Depending on tidal conditions, your tour will operate as one of the following experiences:

    OPTION 1: Hot Water Beach & Coromandel Tour: Dig your own natural geothermal spa directly in the sand at the world-famous Hot Water Beach – an experience found in very few places on Earth. Operates only when tide times allow. Don't forget to bring your swimwear and towel if you'd like to enjoy this unique activity!

    OPTION 2: Cathedral Cove & Coastal Adventure Tour: On days when tidal conditions are not suitable for Hot Water Beach, the tour operates as our Cathedral Cove & Coastal Adventure experience. You'll follow the same stunning coastal journey through the Coromandel, visiting Cathedral Cove and enjoying additional scenic stops, hidden gems, and spectacular viewpoints throughout the region. (PLEASE NOTE: This option does not Hot Water Beach due to tide times).

    Whichever option operates on your chosen day, you'll experience the very best of the Coromandel Peninsula, with breathtaking scenery, secret local stops, wildlife encounters, and the personal touches that make travelling with Cheeky Kiwi Travel so memorable.

    Enjoy a fresh picnic-style lunch, comfortable transport, and plenty of time to explore, photograph, and appreciate one of New Zealand's most spectacular coastal regions.

    Important: Tour itineraries vary entirely based on tidal conditions. Both tour options include Cathedral Cove. Access to Cathedral Cove is weather-dependent, and alternative stops may be arranged if conditions make access unsafe.
