It is a good place to kayak because you can go under the bridge where the cars drive to go to the Mount. It is cold and if it's a hot day it is really good. This is at high tide. At low tide there is just sand - it pulls out into the ocean again.

Mount Maunganui is a great place to visit! It is world famous for its lovely, sunny beaches, brilliant surfing conditions and the huge numbers of visitors each year. It’s a great place to go swimming, surfing, for a walk, exploring and much more! Mouao (the extinct volcano which last erupted two to three million years ago) marks the entrance of Tauranga Moana. Mouao means caught in the light of the day or caught by the morning sun.

I really enjoy going here whenever I can and I also take surfing lessons here. We are really lucky to have such a wonderful place to go to!
