Mount Maunganui

Located across the harbour from Tauranga, Mount Maunganui is surrounded by the Pacific Ocean with the beach on one side of the peninsula, and the sheltered waters of Pilot Bay on the other.

The mountain itself, Mauao (Mt Maunganui), is steeped in Maori history and mythology. It is an extinct volcano, and now a very popular walking track, with walks to the summit or around the base.

The once small town is a hive of activity in the Summer with boutique shops and many cafes, restaurants and bars. There are also the hot saltwater pools at the foot of the Mount. It is a great day out and has an urban beach vibe to rival Aussie destinations.

Mt Maunganui is a 1-hour drive from Orokawa Bay Retreat . It can be seen in the distance from the retreat when looking south. At night you can see the lights, a view especially enjoyed from the outdoor hot tub.

Thank you for an exceptional stay! The best part by far was the outdoor hot tub.
