Activities/Attractions: Located in the North Island of New Zealand, Pauanui would have to be amongst the most beautiful spots in the world. Nestled into the East Coast of the Coromandel Peninsula, due east of Thames and on the southern side of the Tairua Harbour, Pauanui is essentially a spit which has formed at the conjunction of wave and river action of the north side of the Pauanui headland.

Pauanui is a very popular beach resort on the East Coast of the Coromandel Peninsula. Enjoy the lovely beach and estuary adjoining the Tairua Harbour. Plenty of room for water-sports, including swimming, surfing and fishing. Highlights include:

• Tairua River - located in the Puketui Valley, by the main Thames road, this is an excellent picnic and fresh water swimming spot
  
• Tairua Harbour - a dramatic harbour mouth, with an entrance hazardous to boats at times. Shore and cast fishing is available from both Pauanui and Tairua sides
  
• Pauanui Mountain Walking Track - climbing steeply from the south end of Pauanui Beach, this offers a trek to the top of Pauanui Mountain (400m/1200ft) for panoramic views
  
• Pauanui/Tairua Ferry - operating every hour in summer, this is a pleasant ride from the Pauanui Wharf to the Tairua Harbour
  
• Paku - this dramatic volcanic peak dominates the harbour and can be climbed from Paku Drive in a steep 15 min walk to the summit
  
• Sports Clubs - found in both towns along with community clubs offering golf courses and a range of other facilities
  
• Broken Hills - at the top of the Puketui Valley Road, this area has gold mining relics, fishing, rock hounding and a variety of day walks
  
• Slipper Island - historic sites, scenic walks, safe snorkeling, diving, fishing and wreck exploration are all found here
