Set in the middle of the bustling hub of Tauranga, boasting a lively nightlife, an abundance of restaurants and shops, and surrounded by estuaries, beaches, harbours, and parks, Tauranga presents the very best New Zealand has to offer.
It is where New Zealanders come to holiday, and you can make it your home.

In the heart of Tauranga City, enjoy a selection of dining choices among the vast variety of restaurants lining the waterfront on The Strand and surrounds, or shop effortlessly in the adjacent main shopping precinct. If you prefer markets over high streets, the long-standing Tauranga Farmers Market runs every Saturday morning, just up the road at Tauranga Primary School. Entertainment awaits at two cinemas on your doorstep, and nearby Baycourt theatre regularly hosts plays, musicals, concerts, comedy shows, conferences, and film and art festivals. The Tauranga City Art Gallery is just a short walk away, as is the historic The Elms.

Amidst the busy city centre, there are plenty of green spaces to play sport, walk, or escape. Throughout the city and its neighbouring suburbs are numerous cycling tracks.

Tauranga city centre is only a 15-minute drive from Tauranga Airport and a 20-minute drive from the renowned Mauao at Mount Maunganui. Encircled by golden sands and sparkling blue water, Mount Maunganui beach has regularly been named one of the best beaches in New Zealand.

Tauranga is part of what’s known as the ‘Golden Triangle’ of the business economy – the geographic areas bound up by Auckland, Hamilton, and Tauranga. This makes Tauranga, with its port and proximity to these other key cities, a major centre of growth and business in New Zealand. 

Only 90 minutes away from Tauranga lies Hamilton and just another hour away is New Zealand’s biggest city, Auckland. Situated in such a convenient business and recreational location alike, Tauranga is close to numerous big cities, beautiful suburbs, beaches, lakes, and mountains.
