WARM UP IN THE COROMANDEL

Winter at the beach is still loads of fun, especially when there are hot pools to soak in. The deluxe family villas at Hot Water Beach Top 10 Family Holiday Park are perfect for a family of four, with all the comforts of home plus a kids’ area, play pillow, go-karts, and yes, it’s close to Hot Water Beach and Cathedral Cove. Visit info@

hotwaterbeachtop10.co.nz to book a special family deal of $120 per night (three nights minimum) for two adults and two kids. If you want to take a break from the beach, take to the air, flying high above Coromandel’s native forest and across gullies and streams with CoroZip at Driving Creek. Learn about the conservation, art and community of the area from knowledgeable guides while gliding through the air on eight connected ziplines. CoroZip tours start from $127 per adult and run daily at 10.15am and 1.15pm. Visit dcrail.nz/corozip/ to book.
