A great day out for the family. A short drive from Whitianga township, Hot Water beach is a top attraction on the Coromandel Peninsula. Double check when high/low tide times are for the day you choose to go, pack up the car with shovels (available from us on request), towels, togs, maybe a picnic and all other beach essentials and get ready for some natural geothermal water action!
