The Coromandel Coastway is one of New Zealand's most beautiful walks. It takes approximately 3.5 hours one way, and traverses pristine bush, farmland and coastline, shadowed by the brooding Mt Moehau.

From Fletcher Bay you can start the Coromandel Coastal Walkway, a 20km (return) hike that provides for some of the most spectacular scenery you will find on the Coromandel. The path runs from Fletcher Bay to Stony Bay (or vice versa and can be started at either end) and covers many diverse landscapes such as native bush, secluded coastal bays and farmland. Outlooks along the way include the vast expanse of the pacific ocean, Great Barrier Island, the Coromandel Coastline, and Mount Moehau just to name a few.

The track is relatively easy, however the steep decline and incline out of Poley Bay is not for the faint hearted. But who doesnt love a little challenge!

The photo opportunities are endless along this hike and I have to say it's one of my favourite in the country. If you love the coastline like me, then this is a must do.

There are DOC camp grounds at both Fletcher and Stony Bay if you wish to stay and relax afterwards. If you would like to do the walk one way (10km) there are tourism operators in the area that run pick-ups and can return you to your vehicle.
