Just across the biggest city of the country, Auckland lies a most sublime peninsula, worth your time and effort to visit. The Coromandel Peninsula reaches 40 kilometres (24.8 miles) in width on its broadest point and is one of the most popular holiday destinations in the Kiwi Land. The rather large area is home to some of the most immaculate beaches and lush forests and one can enjoy a laid-back life here. If you are up for some adventure, you can try cycling the gorgeous Hauraki Rail Trail and admire the incredible Owharoa Falls, snorkel at Orua Sea Cave, kayak at the Cathedral Cove between two secluded golden beaches or reach the summit at the Pinnacles early morning to catch a breathtaking sunrise. To save you time and effort, we have gathered below the top Airbnbs in Coromandel Peninsula, New Zealand. So have a look and book a trip to remember!
