Hot Water Beach
Geothermal Beach
Hot Water Beach, located on the Coromandel Peninsula in New Zealand, is a unique destination where visitors can dig their own hot pool in the sand. The beach is famous for its geothermal springs that emerge through the sand at low tide, allowing visitors to create their own natural spa experience just meters from the Pacific Ocean.
This extraordinary activity is best enjoyed two hours on either side of low tide, when the hot water is accessible. The beach also offers stunning scenery, golden sands, and opportunities for surfing. With its rare geothermal phenomenon and picturesque setting, Hot Water Beach is a must-visit spot for anyone exploring the Coromandel.
