Tauranga is the largest city in the Bay of Plenty and one of New Zealand's fastest growing cities, enjoying cosmopolitan lifestyle at its own pace. Situated at the entrance to a beautiful natural harbour, Tauranga is a thriving commercial centre and the place to be for stylish shopping.
With an abundance of sunshine and relatively high temperatures, Tauranga is a great place to visit all year round. With 100kms of white sand and surf, visitors can experience endless water activities, fishing, unspoiled natures walks, parks and a buzzing caf scene and nightlife. Never a dull moment!
Tantalising Tauranga has two large marinas with over a thousand yachts and launches, and numerous charter boat operators ready to take visitors outside the harbour's entrance to the marlin-filled waters surrounding Mayor and White Islands or for a swim with dolphins.
