| The dark green strip on the coast is Matakana Island which creates the quiet waters of the inner harbour. Resort Pacifica and the nearby township of Katikati are circled. A favorable climate, the largest export Port in the country and a prosperous economy have made this the fastest growing Province in the country.
Tauranga and Mt. Maunganui are 1/2 an hour by car and the more secluded Waihi Beach and Pio Shores are somewhat closer. Auckland is 2 hours north by car. |
