Raglan and Coromandel Peninsula

9 °C

Wow! Did we hurt the next day or what! Still our adventure must go on! We jumped in the car and ended up in Raglan for lunch. This is world famous for its surfing. It did nothing but piss it down hard and was just incredibly windy as you can see....

There were no surfers to be spotted....

We then drove to the Coromandel Peninsula the following day and explored. We had fantastic weather for this - A lovely crisp sunny day and we made the most of it. Off to the beach we went.....OH...but this wasn't any old beach this was Hot Water Beach! You can dig a hole in the sand and enjoy an thermal treatment! Even though the tide was on its way in, we could still bury our feet in the sand and in doing so nearly burning our soles...

We also took a stroll to Cathredral Cove a huge archway on a beach.
