Beach Info
Whangamatā Beach is one of Coromandel's most well-known locations. During the height of summer, there are thousands of people in and around the water. The beach can be good for surfing during large swells. The beach is generally safe but swimmers are advised to stay away from the northern and southern ends of the beach. If in doubt ask the Lifeguards (there will usually be someone at the Surf Life Saving Club).
