The first stage of the day was a twisty gravel road leading to Fletcher Bay, at the very top of the Coromandel Peninsula. We had then to drive all the way back to Whangaahei on the same beautiful road along the West Coast that we took the day before. From here we headed East to the Waikawau Bay then drove along a crazy road in the mountains to go back on the West Coast. On the way we stopped at the summit for the Tokatea Lookout. As there is not many roads in Coromandel, we had to drive again to the West, stopping again to a lookout at the summit of the road, to reach Whangapoua and its beautiful
white sand beach where we had lunch. The next stage was to take the 309 Road, described as a very scenic but narrow and winding gravel road ! A good experience with a stop at the Waiau Falls. After a quick petrol/grocery stop in Whitianga, we drove south along the East Coast. A cool and easy scenic drive with different sightseeing : the Twin Kauris, some lookouts on the coast, the Mary Beach Reserve in Tairua, the Whangamata Beach, Waihi Beach and finally Bowentown Heads with a view on the Anzac Bay. After having paid the DOC campsite yesterday, we tried to find a place to stay off the road. After a few minutes’ drive, we took a small gravel road entering a forest and found a small spot inside a corner. That would be the campsite for tonight !
