1. Do it for the gram at Cathedral Cove
In Hahei, Cathedral Cove is one of the most visited spots – and for good reason! Cathedral Cove is a stunning coastal gem; a photographer’s dream. With dramatic waterfalls and colourful hues of sandstone archways, there will be more than one option to post on the gram!
2. Sunrise strolls at Hahei beach
The beaches at Hahei are about as picturesque as they come, the perfect spot to start your day.
Hot tip: A short one-kilometre walk along the beach provides a more peaceful and intimate stroll than the bustling Cathedral Cove walkway, so you can enjoy your sunrise in peace and quiet. Also, brew a cup of coffee at your Hahei bach and take it with you along the beach for a blissful way to greet the day!
3. Have a kayaking adventure
There’s no better way to enjoy the Hahei coastline than exploring it by kayak. Hahei kayak hire is pretty straightforward, with several rental shops available along the beach, as well as multiple guided tour options. You might even get lucky and encounter an orca or pod of dolphins when you’re out on the water! Why not book a bach in Hahei to return to after all that hard work paddling!
4. Find the fish
The choice is yours on how to find your fish friends. You can either get wet with a snorkeling adventure or stay dry while admiring the sea life below with Hahei’s glass bottom boat. Whatever you choose, there’ll be plenty of fish to befriend!
5. Explore a sea cave
Enjoy a sea cave adventure with a two hour tour through the Coromandel’s volcanic scenery and world-class marine reserves. The highlight of the trip will be the Orua sea cave, which is the second largest in New Zealand and a photographer’s dream.
