WELCOME TO WAIHĪ BEACH

At the northern tip of the Coastal Bay of Plenty lies Waihī Beach, a bustling beachside village which is home to cute boutique shops, eateries and 9-kilometres of white sand beach.

Located 40 minutes' drive north from Tauranga, Waihī Beach is a great place to stay if you’re looking for an old-school, kiwi beach holiday. We’re talking ice cream, fish and chips, running across the hot sand and splashing about in the waves for hours on end - this is where the magic happens.
