10 Things to do in Papamoa That You Shouldn't Miss

June 27, 2021 Terina Blouin

Papamoa Beach is a suburb of Tauranga, located about 11 kilometres from the city centre. It is the largest residential suburb in Tauranga, having a population of 20,091 at the 2013 census. It is bordered to the west by Mount Maunganui (east of Sunrise Avenue and Hibiscus Avenue), the east by the Kaituna River (separating it from the Western Bay of Plenty District) and to the south by State Highway 2. Papamoa Beach has 16km of white sandy beach stretching from the boundary with Mount Maunganui in the west to the Kaituna River in the east. Widespread settlement of the area did not start until the early 1980s and prior to this Papamoa Beach had been largely a rural area. Once a small and tight knit community, many of Papamoa Beach's sweeping paddocks have been swallowed up by urban development. Papamoa Beach is currently one of the fastest growing suburbs of Tauranga, with many different subdivisions developing concurrently on different blocks of land on the fringes of the suburb.

8. New Zealand Discovery Tours

The Small Group Tour Experience: Our Only Focus! We design our escorted tours specifically for small groups of up to 16 guests, which allows us to move about more flexibly and efficiently; enjoy more spontaneous encounters; and experience a degree of freedom and independence simply not available to travellers on conventional group tours of 16 or more. Our goal is to show you the major sights and take you where you’d like to go on your own but don’t have the access or opportunity to plan yourself: Giving the opportunity for you the traveller to be free to savour the experience. Not only do these opportunities enhance your travels, but someone else makes the arrangements and manages all the details leaving you free to savor the small group experience. Small group travel is all that we do! We only use high quality Mercedes Vehicle's with 6, 11 & 16 seats per vehicle all with dual air conditioning and UV protection tinted glass, it’s all we’ve ever done, from the beginning! And so because our company originated with the small group travel experience, the small group philosophy means a lot to us. It is built into the very foundation of our company, of our mission, and of every tour that we offer. We design and operate our tours specifically for small groups, rather than adapt a conventional tour to take fewer guests, as do some other travel companies that recently have "introduced" small group tours to their standard tour line-up! We create and operate our own tours then offer them directly to you, so no middlemen to add to the cost along the way. We work closely with our Helicopter Suppliers, Boat Charter's, Venues, Hotels, and other travel partners to secure the lowest rates possible. Then we put those rates to good use by offering our tours at an excellent value. Not necessarily the lowest price, but the best ratio of price to experiences, quality, and service. We invite you to compare our tours with those of other travel companies group size to group size; hotel quality to hotel quality; included sightseeing to included sightseeing; itinerary to itinerary and see for yourself. You’ll find that Cruise Ship Shore Excursions Limited offers the best package of small group travel and premium quality at an excellent value.
