Mount Maunganui
Mount Maunganui is one of New Zealand’s top holiday destinations, boasting glorious beaches, Mt Mauao walking tracks, hot water pools, surfing, fishing, kayaking and sailing.
Add to that a fantastic selection of shops, bars, cafe's and restaurants and it is not surprising that during the summer the population increases dramatically.
The Mount Maunganui main beach is directly in front of the Pavilion Beachfront Apartments and is patrolled in the summertime by members of the Bay of Plenty Surf Life Saving Association and voluntary lifeguard patrols are present from October through to March each year.
