Bay of Plenty & Rotorua

What’s in a name? Accuracy, if we’re talking Bay of Plenty! Nestled on the east coast of New Zealand’s North Island, Bay of Plenty will fill many a day with loads of different experiences. For starters, it’s pretty good weather ALL year round, making it perfect to hit the beaches like Ohope Beach, Papamona Beach and the two at Mount Maunganui. Or relax and unwind amongst the beautiful harbours, watching the world pass you by.

Now let’s talk ‘volcanoes’: White Island, an active marine volcano, is a must-see. Then make sure you make it to Rotorua, the volcanic lake district. Its headliner is its rejuvenating spa treatments and dramatic landscape, but there’s more to it with adventure, family fun and eco-tourism a…plenty. Then if a rod, mountain bike or comfy walking shoes are part of your ultimate day, Bay of Plenty dishes up plenty of options there too. How long have you got?
