The Coromandel

During our first month in NZ we visited the Coromandel (the sticky out bit to the east of Auckland!) with our great friends Rich, Kath and their little baby Amelie (our God daughter!). We stayed at a beautiful bach in a place called Whangapoua just 2 minutes walk from the beach. It was incredible and also fantastic to catch up with our friends (who have been living in Auckland for 2 years now). The highlight of the trip had to be walking from Whangapoua to New Chums Beach. You can only access this stunning beach by foot and it takes 30 minutes to trek through the jungle to get to it...worth every second! The children loved it and pretended to look for tigers to pass the time!
It was truly a fantastic break.
