Whitianga

Saturday 8th March


We were out of Coromandel today and headed up and over the top of the Peninsular to a place called Whitianga. On the way we drove a small road up to Whangapoua, where you could walk to one of the 10 most beautiful beaches in the world... it said. Unfortunately the tide was coming in and we had to make do with a beach walk on a less stunning one, but have to say that was quite stunning enough for me!

The beach next tot the best beach - just glorious!




We trundled around to Whitianga, a small, but slightly livlier seaside town on Mercury Bay. We were going to stay for two nights here, but again everything closed at 5pm. So a rethink was called for. What were we going to do for the last 2 days of our trip. Looking at the map there wasn't really any where we specifically wanted to go. Rod wanted us to be nearish to the airport on the last night, but what about tomorrow. We are both feeling a big jaded and travelled out, so in reality it didn't matter where we went.


What a road
