Papamoa Beach sits within Tauranga, and the wider Bay of Plenty network of towns, including Rotorua, Hamilton and Taupo, lies within reach for anyone touring the region by car.
Visitors should note that seasons here run opposite to the northern hemisphere, so December to February brings summer, while June to August is winter. English is the everyday language, though te reo Māori is also official, which is why Māori place names appear on road signs across the country.
