Waihi
New Zealand
Gold-mining history defines this small North Island town at the foot of the Coromandel Peninsula, with a compact centre offering cafés, restaurants, and a concentration of historic churches. The Kaimai Ranges rise to the west, accessible via the winding Karangahake Gorge road, while Waihi Beach lies a short drive east toward the Bay of Plenty.
