Tauranga - Bay of Plenty
Local History
Tauranga is the largest residential and commercial area of the coastal Bay of Plenty.
Fertile lands and a pleasant climate make it the centre of a large kiwifruit and citrus-growing area.
The newly developed waterfront has cafés, restaurants, bars and nightclubs.
Sulphur Point Marina, Harbour Bridge Marina and Coronation Pier offer options for swimming with dolphins.
Children would enjoy a visit to an animal park, which also sells fishing licences.
Wineries are a great option for relaxed dining after free wine tasting!
The fish markets sell fish wholesale and retail, and also offer takeaways.
