It is a tiny village with an excellent location on "the Hibiscus Coast" north of Auckland.
Of particular interest are the geo-thermal waters located beneath Waiwera.
This Inn has a literally hot tub tapped into the warm mineral waters below
The pool here is also warm mineral waters.
We took shelter here when my knee replacements had reached their limit, and were screaming for rest. I am resting here, while Clair seeks out and discovers more of the natural wonders here. It is as active geothermically as Yellowstone Park.
These few images are of the area. Notice the waters and steep ridge across the cove waters.
Watching the tidal waters come and go is restful as well. I am told the shellfish here are yummy. Woody's is the one and only restaurant in the village. After sampling some of its fare, I can recommend a casual evening there worth while. Try the chowder too!
Well, that is all for now. No matter where you are, get out and explore more of the area.
Meeting new people is healthy, especially when you are in a friendly mood.
Bye for now,
Carole Anne
