Travel Guide

The walkway, along some of New Zealand North Island's most breath-taking coastline, also features tracks across beautiful farmland. The track connects Stony Bay and Fletcher Bay and takes 3-4 hours. You can walk in either direction but take into account the time to get there and back. Alternatively there are organised walks available that include transport from Coromandel and pick up at the other end of the track.

This campground is also located at the top of the Coromandel, but on the other side (there is no road at attaches them). As the name suggests, the beach itself is “stony” and surrounded by lush forest, streams and wildlife. There is a “secret” sandy beach just up the road that you have to bush walk to get to but it’s nice and secluded. There is a pack of ducks here that have obviously been fed too many times before and will chase you down when you first arrive, even if you haven’t fed them. They can hear the rustle of a chip bag from a mile away and literally come running towards you. And they will sleep outside your tent at night, follow you into the shower and wait for you at the bottom of the tree you’ve climbed up. They’re crazy! Good thing I like ducks. The campsite is at the beginning/end of the Coromandel Coastal Walkway which takes you to Fletcher Bay (next door to Port Jackson) and takes six hours to complete, but you can hike up part of it to check out the good views. I’d definitely stay here again. It was $10NZD/person/night and empty in April!
