TREKKING
Mt. Maunganui is one of the best place to trek, with many spots to take beautiful pictures. With 4 differents tracks, all varying in fitness level required and each with different scenic lookouts and this makes it more the reason to go hiking. The easiest track will be the base track, it will take about 45 minutes. You will be able to take pictures of the ocean and see the other side of the mount. There is also the Orauhine track, which is a little bit steeper but you will get excellent views of Tauranga and the beach. This track will lead you to the 4WD track which will lead you to the top of sumit, with panoramic views of the surrounding areas. If you do get to the summit before sunset, I would recommend not staying there as it can get really cold and windy!
SURFING
Other things that you can enjoy in Tauranga is go down to Mt. Maunganui main beach and learn how to surf. To become a pro in surfing you have to do a two day or more course with reasonable prices and all equipment provided, it will be a great experience for all age groups. So go down to the beach and have a blast!
WATERWORLD
One of the most coolest and fun activity you can only do in the summer and only in Tauranga is the world famous Waterworld. Set up in the middle of CBD, it can be easily reached from any hotel and close to the best restaurants in town it will make for the best evening of the trip. But let’s get back to the activity at hand with large bouncy castles and huge trampolines, it will be fun for everybody! And don’t worry, it isn’t very expensive. So if ever in Tauranga in the summers, don’t miss out on Waterworld!
