Heards Bay is located on the Western side of the Coromandel Peninsula just a 10 minute drive from Coromandel town. With stunning views of the Whanganui and Motutapere Islands, the secluded bay is a great place to relax and enjoy a peaceful swim.
With a beach and a small boat ramp used as a departure point for the occasional scenic sailing trip, you can also explore the area by walking to Sugarloaf Wharf via Hannaford's Jetty. Choose the Kowhai Drive bush track offering spectacular views of Te Kouma Harbour, or the headland route taking you past the historic Ariki Tahi Pa site.

A lot of the beaches in New Zealand aren’t safe for swimming. This one is. It’s the perfect spot for a relaxing splash or sunbathe, looking out at to a collection of small islands. Close to Coromandel town, but far enough away from any fast action. Tip: Take an early morning or late evening dip for maximum tranquility and peace.
