Cần Quan Tâm
Pilot Bay
Pilot Bay is a calm, wave-free harbour beach located directly beside the cruise ship dock. It features a flat, scenic boardwalk, shade-giving Pōhutukawa trees and gentle waters perfect for swimming, kayaking, or paddle boarding. It connects directly to the famous walking tracks of Mauao (currently closed) and sits just a 5-minute walk from downtown cafes and shops, making it an effortless, highly accessible spot for cruise visitors.
Mt Maunganui Main Beach
Mount Maunganui Main Beach is New Zealand’s premier ocean beach, famous for its pristine white sand, excellent surf, and the dramatic backdrop of Mauao (The Mount). Located a short walk from the cruise dock and downtown shops, it offers lifeguarded swimming, a scenic coastal boardwalk, and a walkable land bridge to the blowhole on Moturiki Island. It is an ideal spot to experience Kiwi beach culture, watch surfers, or walk along the pristine boardwalks.

5.00We had great commentary the whole 2 hours. We enjoyed the diversity of the tour, especially the countryside. Tour guide/ bus driver was very knowledgeable. Only thing that would have been better was to make the tour longer. Great value for your money.
Fun outing!

5.00I would definitely recommend this local tour to anybody who would like to experience an entertaining and informative overview of this beautiful part of New Zealand. The tour covers Mount Maunganui, Tauranga and the surrounding countryside - we were taken up into the hills where we were able to take photos of the breathtaking view of Tauranga Harbour. Alan, our driver, was extremely knowledgeable and had a great sense of humour!!

1.00We had the original time altered, didn't mind too much, the 52 seater bus was full, some couples boarding last unable to sit together, two & half hours of sheer boredom, no toilet stops, a couple desperate had to use a building site, an old man went around back of the bus, we saw houses, fruit on a tree, up a steep mountain just to see a view of nothingness, absolutely awful would NOT RECOMMEND!!!
