After getting settled at your accommodation of choice, you'll likely want to venture out and explore. If you're excited to scope out the beaches, spend a relaxing day by the water at Pilot Bay Beach or Maunganui Beach. Discover the area's cafes and shopping, and make time for local attractions such as Tauranga Domain and Memorial Park. For more things to see and do, consider visiting Huria Marae or Fernland Spa.
