Cathedral beach is well promoted on various brochures and web sites about the Coromandel peninsula and signposted as you travel towards Whitianga. Does it live up to its hype ? I think so.
What to do today ? We had a big day yesterday with all that driving and bike riding. It’s chucking it down with rain, seems to be the story for our week in New Zealand. Perhaps the lost springs in town, nah it’s supposed to pour later in the week, so let’s leave it till then, and Caroline wants to go horse riding so a massage might be needed afterwards. Ah, I know we can co and see the hot water beach.
Somehow I convinced Caroline that riding a bicycle will be fun, and look how tantalising the pictures are in the brochures and website for the Hauraki rail trail .
