West coast of Coromandel Peninsula

A beautiful part of New Zealand, the coastal road winds around countless bays and headlands. We are fortunate to stay in Papaaroha at a lovely old farmhouse on a property owned by dear friends of ours. There is good fishing just a few minutes row from the shore, mussels are plentiful as are rock oysters..........Paradise. Many of the pics are taken around the farm and on the beach frontage. The Buddhist Temple is at Colville, all the beaches etc are on the road between Papaaroha and Port Jackson.

Great to see the other part of the Coromandel Peninsula. We enjoyed our visit to Hot Water Beach and enjoyed our time in NZ.

Would indeed be my pleasure Jill and Tony. The results you get with your own camera would no doubt be better than mine.
