Mount Maunganui, a suburb of Tauranga city about six kilometers away. It is located on a peninsula and has both a sheltered harbor coast and an ocean coast within easy reach. The name Mount Maunganui was taken from the extinct volcano of the same name, which rises 231 meters above the city, but is officially back today
bears the Maori name Mauao. At the foot of Mauao, the suburb is only a few hundred meters wide. There are the best beaches in the region. The sea is popular with surfers, while the hill offers good hiking trails and great views.
