Tauranga is one of New Zealand's fastest growing and most vibrant cities. Situated in the sun kissed Bay of Plenty, Tauranga's beaches, harbours and natural attractions combine with rich horticultural growth, a robust economy and unsurpassed lifestyle to make it a premiere destination for holidaymakers both domestically and internationally.
Most visitors to Tauranga are drawn to the beach, whether it is for a stroll up Mauao, the iconic, 232-metre ex-volcanic peak that forms part of the entrance to Tauranga Harbour known to locals as "The Mount" or to swim, surf, kayak, fish, cruise or paddle. The Bay of Plenty is one of the best places to go dolphin watching.
For those who love a bit of retail therapy, Bayfair Shopping Centre, located on the corner of Girven and Maunganui Roads over at Mount Maunganui is a great place to kill some time. With over 80 stores to shop in, you are bound to find something suited for the whole family. Carry on 10 minutes down the road and you will come to the busy beachside town of Papamoa, also a shoppers delight - with Palm Beach Plaza and Fashion Island open every day.
Tauranga also offers that Kiwi favourite: adventure tourism. White water rafting, kite surfing, land yachting and mountain biking are just some of the experiences available.
For those who prefer a more sedate, laid back pace on holiday, Tauranga is also home to a number of boutique wineries and fine restaurants, as well as a wide range of shops from kitschy craft to designer goods.
Tauranga boasts a rich vein of cultural experiences with specialised museums like the Historic Village and The Elms, MÄori culture tours, art galleries and other historic buildings and places.
For a family holiday, it is hard to go past Tauranga and Mount Maunganui. With speedway, wildlife parks and New Zealand's only salt water hot pools, it caters for every member of the family from tiny tots to grandparents.
Tauranga hosts several annual events which attract many visitors, like the Easter Jazz Festival, and the New Zealand famous New Years Eve celebrations at The Mount.
Tauranga is also an ideal base for exploring other areas of this great country. It is only an hour to the geothermal wonders of Rotorua and an easy drive to explore the beautiful Coromandel Peninsula.
