Hot Water Beach

Igar var vi pa Black water rafting, hur kul som helst. Man fick ta pa sig vatdrakt och en hjalm sedan fick man en slags badring som man skulle sitta i. Vi gick in i en grotta dar en flod strommade igenom. Var kolsvart men man hade en lanmpa pa hjalmen. Sen stod vi stilla allihop i grottan och slackte vara lampor, da sag man sjalvlysande maskar. Det …

Wwoofing Stay Teil 1

Wir sind jetzt seit 5 Tagen in Hahei und machen unsere erste Wwoofingerfahrung.
The Church sind verschiedene Ferienwohnungen, die unter oekologischen Richtlinien erbaut worden sind. Wir wohnen in einem Teil der Garage, der zu einer kleinen Wohnung mit Bad und Kochnische umgebaut wurde. Es ist sehr nett, der einzige Nachteil sind die vielen …

Bye Bye To Van Life!

Our last few days in the van have been spent pootling north towards Auckland ready to hand it back to Kea. The further north we go, the warmer it gets and we were hoping for a bit of surfing but unfortunately we couldn't find anywhere to hire boards!

At our first stop in Mt Manganui we stalked the surf board guy for two days; we waited …

Hot Water beach and Coromandel town

This morning we went to Hot Water beach, just 7km away from Hahei. There are hot water springs beneath the sand and you can dig holes in the sand to sit in in the warm water. We got there at about 10am at low tide but there was already lots of people and unfortunately we couldn't find a spot to dig that was fed by a hot spring so we didn't stay. We …

Beautiful Beaches

Up early and on the road by 8am, heading north to Tauranga, on the coast, and then west, up the Coromandel Peninsula, through Katikati, Waihi, Whangamata, Tairua and finally Hahei. We have stopped at Hahei for the night but we first visited Hot Water Beach, just before lunch, where you can dig yourself a hot, wet hole in the sand. Alas though, you …

Test the Best – Strandhopping auf Coromandel

Die Campingplatzbesitzerin in Waihi Beach ist ganz begeistert von ihrer Anlage, einem Platz mit eigenen, natürlichen Thermal-Quellen: „Hüpft doch gleich morgens mal in unsere heißen Pools." Hatten wir eigentlich gar nicht vor, entpuppt sich aber als super Idee. Während wir in ungechlortem, 37°C warmem Thermalwasser dümpeln, geht langsam die …

Heavenly Hahei Part 2 (more pics to follow)

Well. I have to say that while I was busy blogging for Blightry yesterday, riddled with guilt at the number of days that had gone by without an entry, Euan was up on the dunes with Gilbert watching a pod of orcas disporting themselves in the bay. I ask you! Needless to say, he has captured the event on camera. Needless to say, I missed it. But all …

Waterfall chasing.

We shot over to the Coromandel Peninsula for some waterfalls and hot beaches. Cathedral cove was our first spot and it was a beach that you had to hike about 20 minutes to get to. Secluded and beautiful. We hopped in the water and went exploring in some sea caves, jumped off some flat rocks, and rinsed off in the waterfall nearby....not a bad day …

Sore bum

Today we planned a trip to Cathedral Cove and the Hot Water beach by bike. Because the hot water beach wouldn't be anything exciting to look at until around 6 PM, we went ahead and slept in this morning. That was needed because we were up quite late due to a group of people making way too much noise outside of our window. Granted, they did quiet …
