Mount Maunganui really sparkles with about 100 km of white sand beaches and the enticing blue ocean. For decades, the area has held irresistible charm for visitors and locals alike. The seaside resort town, affectionately known by locals as the Mount, draws thousands of holiday makers every summer season.
The spectacular beach reaches as far as the eye can see with sparkling white sand and the crashing surf beach on the one side and a tranquil, sheltered harbour on the other. There are some wonderful walkways around the base track or up to the top where you will be rewarded with spectacular views of the area. In the summer months you can relax while sunbathing, see and be seen at the beach or enjoy being a spectator to some of the great activities that are organised here every year like the Half Iron Man, Weetbix Kiwi Kids Triathlon or the National Beach Volleyball Championships. Mount Maunganui in the summertime has something to enjoy for everyone.
With the many cafes, boutique shops, art galleries and restaurants of world class standard, Mount Maunganui is a trendy and cosmopolitan place that is worth visiting all year around. Belle Mer Apartments has some great specials and huge reductions on the usual apartment rates to benefit from in the winter season.
