Kids really dig this place ♨🏖

Bathtime gets a major upgrade at Coromandel’s Hot Water Beach, where a shovel is the key to unlocking your very own private hot pool – heated by the geothermal activity beneath the sand. BYO rubber duckies! 🛁

There’s no Golden Arches here at Nugget Point… but you’ll feel like you’ve struck gold when you see these views with your own eyes 🤩

This clifftop lookout point on the edge of the Catlins Coast is a feast for all the senses. Named after its iconic rocks that resemble nuggets of shiny gold, the lighthouse is a must-visit if you’re roadtripping New Zealand’s Southern Scenic Route.

Mud bath, anyone? 🌋

Rotorua’s geothermal mud has been naturally healing and rejuvenating skin for over 800 years. Once used by Māori warriors to heal their battle-scarred bodies, visitors now use the nutrient-rich waters and mud to ease inflammation and arthritis, like at Hell's Gate 🛀
