There is so much to see and do in the Northern Coromandel!
Here are just a few of the things
that we recommend.
Hike & Bike
Official Pahi Coastal Walk Shuttles
Planning your coastal walk?
Hike & Bike (located at 76 Wharf Road) is the official shuttle
provider for the Pahi Coastal Walkway.
Whitestar Station offers the perfect nearby basecamp for
your journey. Stay at 1 of our cottages or Bush cabins, located just a short 4-minute drive
(2.8km) from the shuttle departure point, for a stress-free morning start. Or, choose our
Ocean View Retreat—a scenic 9-minute drive away—for a luxury spa pool soak and premium comfort the
moment you finish the trail. Check out their services for shuttles, bike hire, and Northern
Coromandel tours via the link below

our own Station-raised Hereford beef while you relax in the heart of the farm.

Things to do for everyone with three unforgettable tourism experiences: A railway tour on New Zealand's only mountain railway crossing ten bridges and through three tunnels with spectacular views across The Coromandel, an eight zipline canopy tour that traverses through native forest both under ferns and high in the treetops, or a creative wheel throwing pottery class in a place thriving with inspiration and old world values.
The Waterworks
Watch out, you might get wet! The Waterworks has over 70 attractions to play on, interact with or look at; many of these are created from recycled materials and powered only by water. If you enjoy having fun with water, then The Waterworks is the place for you!
Boom, Bust and Beyond Tours
Let local guides take you on an authentic experience! Discover the history and hidden stories of our town through the Boom, Bust and Beyond guided walking tour. Tours available in both the morning and afternoons. Varies due to seasons. Bookings essential.
Love the Water?
We're spoilt for choice when it comes to water activities. Fishing charters, kayaking, surfing, diving, fishing.
We're spoilt for choice here with fresh seafood too. But there is plenty of cafés and restaurants to choose from and provide a great range of delicious delights. Experience fish'n'chips on the beach or eat at the laid back cafés, or dress up for a bit of formal dining.
