Travelling south on the Auckland Motorway,
turn left at the bottom of the Bombay Hills
onto SH2, (signposted to Tauranga and
Thames). Take SH25 on the left to Thames/Coromandel.
Follow signs to Thames, crossing a single
lane wooden bridge at Kopu.
Thames is a few kilometres up this road. From Thames, continue up the beautiful
coastline SH25 through Thornton Bay, Te Puru,
Waiomu, Tapu and Te Mata, travel inland for
around 20 minutes then take the right hand
turn (still SH25) signposted: Whitianga,
Whangapoua, Matarangi & Kuaotunu. Stunning views of the eastern Coromandel
await you at the top of the hill.
Drive past the first left-hand turn (to
Whangapoua), going on about 8kms until the
Matarangi signs. |
