Coromandel Nature Tours Whitianga Taxi Fares 2021/2022 * Ph Coromandel Nature Tours Whitianga Taxi fares 2021/2022 * Ph. 07-867-1381 since 2012 As a "small passenger service", we also offer taxi service. Bookings are not essential but highly recommended as we operate on a first come first serve basis. Short notice is worth a try as we might be available. Please check our website for up to date operating times, as these do change from time to time due to our other commitments. One-way fares between Whitianga (*) and popular destinations as below: NORTH of town: SOUTH and WEST of town: Simpsons Beach (Wharekaho): from $20 Kaimarama Road (Fun Zone): from $25 Stargazers B&B Kuaotunu: from $40 Whiti Farm Park / Comers Road: from $30 Waitaia Road area Kuaotunu: from $40 Coroglen Tavern: from $35 Kuaotunu Shops and Hall: from $40 Coromandel Town: from $100 Kuaotunu Motor Camp area: from $45 Auckland / Waiheke Ferry Wharf: from $100 Rings Beach: from $50 Hot Water Beach: from $60 Otama Beach: from $50 Hahei Shops or Beach: from $65 Opito Bay: from $70 Tairua: from $80 Matarangi: from $60 Thames: from $170 Whangapoua: from $80 Hamilton: $280 - $300 Colville: from $150 Auckland: $280 - $350 All the above fares assume the start or end point of the trip being in Whitianga (*). If you would like to travel from outside Whitianga to any of the above destinations, or if your destination is not listed, please contact us for a free quote. All fares are one-way (single trip). Return fares are basically the same if travelled from Whitianga and back to Whitianga, however waiting time may be added. Waiting time is calculated at $30 for the first 15 to 60 minutes, plus $10 for every further 15 minutes thereafter. For example a return trip to Tairua where the driver has to wait for 45 minutes before taking you back to Whitianga costs $75 + $30 = $105. Return fares in opposite direction are double the one-way fare, as our driver will need to travel the route four times, as we are based in Whitianga. A trip from Matarangi to Whitianga and back to Matarangi would therefore cost $120 (plus waiting fee, if applicable). Stops immediately en route to pick up or drop off passengers are allowed without surcharge, but a surcharge will be added if those stops involve "backtracking" or "zig-zagging" (maximum $10 per added stop). (*) definition of Whitianga for the purpose of fare calculations as for example above: any address within zone A, B or C, see map below. Coromandel Nature Tours is registered with NZTA under TSL 0300024 (SPSL). We accept payments only by bank transfer or in cash. Sorry, no EFTPOS or credit cards yet - coming soon.

    Issue 959 - 20 July 2021 (07) 866 2090 - [email protected] Circulation 8,200 McClinchy Cup champions! History was made on Saturday last week when the Mercury Bay Senior A Marlins rugby team became for the first time ever the sole holders of the McClinchy Cup by beating Thames 12 - 10 in the 2021 Thames Valley Rugby Union club championship final. It was only the third time that the Mercury Bay Senior A team reached the final. With unrelenting wind and rain, the game was played in the most difficult circumstances imaginable. In 2015, the Bay shared the cup with Waihou after a draw in the final. This time was different. The cup will be displayed in the Mercury Bay trophy cabinet for a full 12 months. The emotion among players and supporters were visible when the final whistle went on Saturday. It was undoubtedly one of the proudest moment in the long history of a very proud club.

  • NGĀTI HEI and the CROWN AGREEMENT in PRINCIPLE EQUIVALENT July 2011
    NGĀTI HEI and THE CROWN AGREEMENT IN PRINCIPLE EQUIVALENT July 2011 INTRODUCTION - SETTLEMENT STRUCTURE 1. The Iwi of Hauraki1 entered into a Framework Agreement between the Hauraki Collective and the Crown dated 1 October 2010. 2. The Framework Agreement and Agreement in Principle Equivalents represent incremental steps towards a comprehensive Deed of Settlement between the Crown and the Iwi of Hauraki. 3. The Deed of Settlement will settle all Historical Claims2 under the Te Tiriti o Waitangi / the Treaty of Waitangi3 in the Hauraki region which arise from the whakapapa of each of the Iwi of Hauraki. 4. As a consequence of the Deed of Settlement, each of the Iwi of Hauraki will be entitled to a range of Treaty settlement redress. 5. The Crown and the Iwi of Hauraki acknowledge that the ultimate structure of a settlement with the Iwi of Hauraki is yet to be agreed, and will be developed in the course of negotiations. Thus, for example, it is not yet agreed whether there will be multiple deeds of settlement or a single deed of settlement with iwi specific redress.4 6. This Agreement in Principle Equivalent comprises both collective and iwi specific chapters and includes: a. redress agreed to by the Crown; b. redress the Crown is willing to explore; and c. redress the Hauraki Collective and Ngāti Hei seek. 7. The Crown acknowledges that the Collective and Ngāti Hei has the right to seek redress, but notes that some of the redress iwi seek is outside current government policy. 8. Ngāti Hei is party to the Hauraki Collective Framework Agreement and is undertaking iwi specific negotiations in respect of its interests.

  • MERCURY BAY NORTH Community Plan 2020
    MERCURY BAY NORTH Community Plan 2020 - 2030 This plan will help Council to understand what is important to the community and allow Council to make informed decisions on the prioritising and funding of services and activities through the review of the Long Term Plan. MERCURY BAY WARD Mercury Bay, situated on the eastern coast of the Coromandel Peninsula was first mercury bay North named Te Whanganui-o-Hei, the great bay of Hei, by Māori. Te Whanganui-o-Hei refers to Hei, a tohunga tārai waka (expert canoe builder) from the great ocean-going double-hulled waka, Te Arawa. The local iwi is called Ngāti Hei. Captain James Cook, the British explorer and navigator, named the area Mercury Bay whilst circumnavigating New Zealand. In November 1769, the then Lieutenant Cook sailed into the area on the HM Bark Endeavour to observe the transit of Mercury across the sun in order to determine the longitude to establish the exact position of New Zealand on the world map. The Mercury Bay Ward runs from Pauls Road in the South through to the Whangapoua Hill in the north. Whitianga is the largest town and provides the main retail and commercial hub in the Mercury Bay Ward. The Mercury Bay Ward is made up of 17 communities that encompass towns, coastal villages and rural settlements. The proximity to the safe harbour provides easy boat access to nearby beaches, outlying islands and good fishing grounds; making the Mercury Bay Ward a desirable place to live work and play. The usual resident population increases significantly during the peak summer period as visitors come to share this unique environment.

  • Abstract the Ghosts of Old Volcanoes, a Geoheritage Trail
    Original Article The Ghosts of Old Volcanoes, a Geoheritage Trail Concept for Eastern Coromandel Peninsula, New Zealand Ilmars Gravis1, Károly Németh2, Chris Twemlow3, Boglárka Németh2 1. Ōpōtiki District Library; Geosights Aotearoa 2. Massey University, School of Agriculture and Environment, Turitea Campus, Palmer- ston North, New Zealand 3. Department of Conservation; Land Mapping New Zealand ©Author(s) 2020, this article is published with open access at http://gcr.khuisf.ac.ir/ Abstract Re-imagining the geotourism experience through the lens of slow tourism, in this paper we lay out a pathway towards a more nourishing, engaging, and educational experience that contributes to both geoconservation and a reshaping of the tourism economy in light of recent disruption caused by the Covid-19 pandemic. Evidence suggests that to date, and further highlighted by unfolding local and global responses to the pandemic, mainstream approaches to conservation, protection, and tourism have poorly served our unique geoheritage landscapes and features. We demonstrate the potential for community led development utilising internationally recognised practises to provide a foundation for low impact and sustainable tourism, education, and training opportunities of benefit to local, regional, and national communities. We identify the eastern Coromandel, including Kuaotunu Peninsula, as an area for potential research and identification of sites with high geological, environmental, and cultural values. A geotrail has the potential to tell the story of formation of rhyolitic caldera walls enclosing translucent azure waters framed by white silica sands. Cultural sites are a landscape record giving voice to indigenous Māori that began the human story of adapting to and modifying the landscape.
