Bay of Plenty

View of Tauranga

The Bay of Plenty has a subtropical climate with warm, humid summers and mild winters. The region is one of the warmest in New Zealand, particularly along the coastline, and most areas experience at least 2,000 hours of sunshine per annum. Average daily maximum temperatures in the region range from 9–16 °C in winter to 22–26 °C in summer. Tauranga is the largest city in the region, located 205 km south-east of Auckland, 105 km east of Hamilton and 85 km north of Rotorua.

Mt Maunganui Beach

Due to the temperate climate, outdoor activities are very popular in Tauranga, including golf, tramping (hiking), mountain biking and white water rafting. The Bay of Plenty coastline features miles of golden sandy beaches, and watersports are very popular pastimes. The most common include swimming, surfing, fishing, diving, kayaking & kitesurfing. Tourists also enjoy dolphin-watching on specially run boat trips.

The Montana Jazz Festival takes place in Tauranga every Easter, with dozens of live acts, good food and excellent wine.
