- We had an epic day trip from Tauranga to the South of the Coromandel. We went to Whangamata for a coffee stop followed by a beautiful hike to the top of Mount Pauanui.

Pauanui was the first purpose-built seaside holiday town in New Zealand. It's basically the playground for the richer folks of Auckland, as you can tell by the many lavish 'holiday homes' around the town. Tairua, its sister town, is much older, but is also becoming the playground of the more well-off.
Preferred Tairua over Pauanui. To many hoity toity nosey arse mofos in Pauanui lol.
The best beach in New Zealand is Totaranui, Golden Bay, South Island. Absolutely stunning. And no houses or shops. Beautiful walks and the exquisite golden sand.
were super excited to head down and see them all!
Hey-ya Glen and Mado
Whangamata and The Mount are arguably the two best beaches in NZ in the summer time. Cool people, cool cars and lots of food and beverages everywhere. It's a great time indeed. Summer here just goes off
Great content yo 🤙🏾
We got amazing weather on this day, felt like summer for myself anyways as Im coming from Ireland haha. But we only discovered this beach when passing by and it was such great surprise on how beautiful it was! :)so excited for the summer though! thanks for watching our videos it means a lot to us :)
The best time to go to Whangamata is 20th-24th March 2024. Beach Hop week! Dancers, free live bands, and hundreds and hundreds of hot rods and classic cars. The population of Whangamata swells that week! Book your campsite NOW! If you only want to do a day trip Saturday is best.
the place shall be hopping! summer brings great times I'd imagine in new Zealand. very excited for it but maybe we actually plan on hitting up Australia around March unfortunately :(
Only for those who are into that sort of thing. Certainly not for everybody. Many locals amongst them.
@@lesleyhughes3174 Only boring people are not into "that sort of thing". Classic cars and classic rock get the pumping and the blood circulating, how could anyone not be into it?
Pauanui, when I first visited my friend and his parents over the Christmas holidays there were only about three retired couples permanently living there and the road in was gravel. What a difference fifty or so years makes! The place used to be covered with pine trees 🌲
Nah I would say abel tasman national park has the most beautiful beaches in NZ, but there is so much to discover in this country 💯
will definitely be checking this place out so! thanks for the recommendation! :)
Piwakawaka (Fantail) love to eat the sandflies and Gnats that fly around people..
awh good to know! there our best friends now 😂
Thanks for sharing your adventures, what a lovely place....
still discovering it day by day and exciting to see what else NZ has in store for us :)
Haven't been to Whangamata this century (!) but it was always a blast to spend New Year holidays there back in the day. It has grown an awful lot in 30 years but even back then, on a really nice New Year's Day, the beach would get a crowd of 30,000 on New Year's Day (many travelling from Auckland and Hamilton for the day) and & beach was still not crowded like it might be in Europe.
Kiwis like a healthy work life balance, so they quite often close early to be woth family and friends.
yeah its all makes sense now! you wouldn't see many other countries doing this which makes nz so unique! :)
Milford Sound is truly the most beautiful place in NZ imo, ive only been once but i still remember it like it was yesterday.
super excited to check it out we were only talking about that today haha
Great video. These places are very different during summer.
just like the whole of new Zealand I'd say !
Every beach in NZ is the very best we have,
We live in paradise and Im not sure if anyone has told you the secret.
Our best surprises are at the end of gravel rds and with the right permission of road in rural areas they don't have shops or buildings just unobstructed views of our wonderful coastline.
Best to spray your shoes at those disinfecting stations.
Wait till you see the Bay of Islands up North past Auckland, and Golden Bay just out of Nelson. Then the lower part of the Sth Island.
were going to visit the top of the north island after we see the south island :)
@GlenAndMado You're zigzagging across the country mate.
hahahah yeah seems that way to be honest 😂😂😂
Your overseas viewers are getting the wrong idea, when you talk about things being so quiet, closed. NZ has four seasons. Summer, beaches are packed, because thats when most have their annual holidays.
luv coffee Whagamota thats a hint if iv ever seen and heard is a .beautifull place far out guys lived here all my life south island never been to nthe noeth island Beautifull place love it one thing in new zealand your safe enjoy the energy love new zealand and good people
It was tasty! just trying to remember this video as we posted it quite a while ago haha :) the north and the south is beautiful in its own special ways :) people are awesome!
Stay safe, glen & mado ma'am. Take care.
The "Lady in the mountaintop ❤️💯 I think she may even be a fantail 😄.ps excellent vlog ... beautiful country in corramandle .,my sister lives in kuotunu💯👌
she was a lovely lady! :) highly appreciated the special words brother means a lot to us. :) very lovely indeed and I'd say your sister is living a very good life then in such a great place :)
@@GlenAndMado my sister and her family live very tiny on a gorgeous peice of Land 👍....as do I 😉 loving your honest and fun attitude 👍
Nz had a saying 4 season in one day in the south island it can go from a sunny day to rainy to snow
Back to sun in the same day
Fascinating isn't it just like ireland haha
True dat!! Lol😊
Great video i hope you enjoyed nz although im embrassed about prices here. Good to c my brother paul on video he goes up the mountain almost daily.
wow Tony its a small world, hes a gentleman indeed :)
Really Beautiful
thank you my friend :)
Luv your vids, are you going Nth of Auckland? Stunning beaches also on the Northland East Coast......after watchin I'm planning some roadies. We really are spoilt here and you have certainly highlighted it....we do take this paradise for granted....
very true its really beautiful here and you guys should definitely take advantage of what you have on your door step! anyways we will be heading back up the top of the north island after seeing the south :)
I get a felafel kebab from that place. My favourite. ❤
It’s a small world! It was delicious
Kia Ora Glen Kia Ora Mado. It's my first time surfing your channel or any visitors channel, actually. I am happy to see you guys relaxing and enjoying your holiday. May your warm openness take you deeper into the comforting hearts of my fellow rural countrymen and of cause our wahine too. It's Dec 17: 2023 for me, I have no idea when you both video your north eastern excursion 😊 but I really enjoyed surfing your channel hearing both your funny accent, 😮 yeah nah! 😢Sorry I myself really have to get out more further then these backwood Country Roads listening to sheep with Kiwi accents now I pray that God Almighty be gracious to you both amen
Kia Ora brother! Hope your having a wonderful weekend 😃 that’s insane that you came across our channel over anyone elses! Your special words keep us motivated to keep travelling and making content of your beautiful country 🙂 but you also need to explore it as you only live once, embrace it and enjoy the journey even if you have commitments there’s always a way David. Create some special memories 🙂
The world is your oyster 🌍
That is a good cardio workout,getting up to the top of Mt Pauanui. I have done it many times. Great views up there. Worth the effort.
Love that you tackle saying local place names, there are some tong twisters. So one thing is wh has the F sound hope that helps, Love you both CGod bless you.
Hey. I followed all your Indian trip. Welcome to New Zealand. You chose the right time to be in North. I has been raining for weeks in South. Keep Dunedin in your list. While, from Tauranga you can also go to Hamilton gardens, Bridal veil waterfall, Taupo and Rotorua. I highly recommend Bay of Island cruise tour.♥
awh amazing glad you've been watching our journey, means alot to us :) by the way were actually going to Hamilton for a night tomorrow! haha. the womens world cup is on so we are heading town to enjoy the place to see what its all about :)
@@GlenAndMado Don't miss the garden. Get married there 😂
@@ashishnegi9602 no married for us brother haha we prefer it that way 😂 we would prefer spending the money to travel instead of a wedding 😎
Hi Glen and Mado, i like your contents and I'm your new subscriber. Enjoy your stay in NZ
Stunning as !
I have been to Turkey, was there a month. Saw a lot of it. I think you would be surprised how many Kiwis have been to Europe. Big OE it is called. Big Overseas Experience. It is so far to fly that Kiwis often stay for a year or more in Europe.
You were up Mount Paku .Pauanui and Tairua are the seaside towns.Fantails are Piwakawaka
Looks like you both living the life 😁
Very like Ireland but also very very different too!
Howya Gunter! Thanks for tuning in pal haha
We have got stuff we want to do to, get ya coffee in the morning 😁
haha sometimes I like 3 coffees a day so having one mid day is great too ;)
Best sausages ever in whangamata butchery…people travel miles to get them
we still haven't visied a butchers yet in new Zealand 😂
Meat at the Beach…that’s the name…and I’m not a local and have travelled 2.5hrs just to go to them lol
The reason the cafes close when they do is because they open really early and the lack of customers during late afternoon doesn't warrant keeping it all running, paying staff.
Cafes close early because of the lack of numbers during the hours of 3-5pm, you might get 1 or 2 customers during those times, so ALL cafes followed suit, AND kiwis are very laid back people.
were starting to feel that, whenever a cafe is empty now they just decide to close even if were just working on our laptops hahaq
Bay of Islands is stunning
You guys are having a great time here in NZ which is good to see. Just letting you know that Whangamata is pronounced like fung-ah-mah-tah.
alot of locations are super difficult to pronounce!, I really struggle but mado is alot better then myself in saying alot of the locations haha :)
@@GlenAndMado I hear ya man, I would be the same if I went to Germany or Ireland
@@sonnyday6830 so then I just get mado to pronounce all the difficult names 😂 yeah Ireland ain’t to but Germany is definitely a different story!
NO "WH" F sound in English, early Europeans must have heard wh as WHanganui as in where.
Ng is nah.
Damn I really wish I had met you both when you were in Bay of Plenty. I'm a Kiwi living here in Tauranga, was searching UA-cam for things to recommend to mates coming over from Europe this coming summer and your vid's popped up. What a great craic, spraoi iontach and Viel Spaß you both are having here in NZ. Hope you are still having the time of your lives. If you are back in Tauranga at any point, get in touch, would welcome to host you both. Cheers.
oh thats a shame brother! haha what's the chance you just missed us as we came to Hawksbay last week from the bay of plenty! we were living 30 minutes from Tauranga. yeah buddy were having a wonderful time so far! hope your having a lovely one. we might come back one day who knows but not certain as we have to see so much!
re coffee at whanamata. you are travelling off season. Everything shuts early...
Nice
nice video
Ha ha - you just drove past my house!
Aha what’s the chances, Nz is a small world!
The shop with the Maori clothes LOL. Funnily enough, there's a Marae in Rotorua and some of the iwi are descendants of Indians along with Maori, so their Marae food is curries and the descendants have Indian facial characteristics which is all pretty cool.
awh really awesome! we have seen the village in rotorua but never participated in any of the events unfortunately. but thats a super interesting fact! I mean alot of indians came down this way for work so makes sense :)
First of all I will like and comment now I am working tonight after dinner I watch your video clip bye-bye good luck god bless❤❤❤💯💯💯🖐🖐🖐🖐👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻
Hope your well brother! always thanks again for the support like always my friend
if you go to Whangamata during the Summer or even long weekends ,,, be prepared to walk a lot because the traffic there is horrendous and it will be quicker to walk from one end of town to the other than drive
coffee carts are good and global sandwiches in the cbd
thanks for the tips :)
most welcome
@@GlenAndMado
dont forgetto visit the far north theres a cocacola lake in doubtless bay and white sand beaches
we will be going there closer to the end of our trip after doing the south island :)
safe travels @@GlenAndMado
Has there been any earthquakes recently in the Bay of Plenty; and has there been any tsunamis along with the earthquakes?
Haven’t heard of any earthquakes that have Happened
Aslamoaleekom Good morning long life in Sha allah beautiful 🌹❤️ Happy family 👍❤️
alaikum salam brother thanks for the special workds my friend :)
I hope he did spray his shoes upon entering the walk. “Dieback” is a cancer killing our native Kauri tree.
Little presumptuous there with the travel thing.
Kiwis are renowned for being global nomads.
Most kiwis would have traveled overseas more than once.
And Turkey is on the list for many as is a the historic Middle East and Europe.
Asian destinations as we have such a diverse culture.
That many people now living here will return to ancestral lands because of family links.
But kiwis are natural explorers.
One Kiwi and One amazing Sherpa were the first to summit Everest.
But I am really enjoying your content.
Ka Pai Korua
Well done you two...👍
I am seen this sea beach photo ya movie. Very beautiful this sea beach name please . From ODISHA INDIA ❤❤❤
Good on you guys for attempting our place names, however Your Killing Me,,,
Whangamatā is pronounced - Fong a ma ta.
Wh in most regions is pronounced as an F.
There are a were basic rules around the Maori language, (even us Kiwi can get it wrong) Then there are the regional dialects.
Vowels in Maori are pronounced differently to English vowels, if in doubt just ask someone, anyone, we are happy to help.
On the other foot, I’d be a laugh if l was in Ireland trying to speak the local language, so good on ya.
I'm sorry guys but something is wrong with UA-cam, I try to give you a "like" but it is not registering.😢
OH that ain't good but thanks for the comment that always helps alot my friend :)
Thames has the best kebabs
13:17 As kids we run up there in bare feet.
You are brave! haha
I'm old subscriber all vedeo falo veri beauty mado spin vlog hot shoub ceen
We work to live, not live to work, thats why coffee shops close early. Our corrupt Government are the reason for high prices....
Do not be in mt maunganui during new year period!!!!!!!!!!! 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉😂
we will keep this mind hahah
@@GlenAndMado ....it you reach Ruawai,I'll shout yous fish and chips 👍 gurnard from matiches in dargaville 🇳🇿❤️
So people who start work at 3am to bake should stay open later than 3pm? Would you? How feckin rude. These are not franchise businesses that have van loads of pre-packaged and labelled goods delivered each morning. They're independent traders who make their own goods on premises. Though the doors might be closed there are probably bakers out the back making dough for bread and pastries for tomorrow's trade. You can rest assured that bakers and butchers rise very, very early to get the shelves stocked with fresh goods rather than yesterday's goods. Who can blame them for not wanting to work more than 12 hours a day, though many do, closing the till and the doors to work another 3-4 hours getting tomorrow's goods prepared.
To pronounce Wha nga mata Wha is "Fa" "nga" is like nah but use the back of your tongue and not the tip do not try to pronounce the "N" and mata is ma is like mar ta is like tar mata "mar tar" Wha nga ma ta. It is NOT mat a. Good luck.
Such boring places ib New Zealand 🤨🤥😮💨😩i wont recommend go there😭🤣
It's just the way we like it. Go to New York or Las Vegas.
All good, your not welcome anyway
Nice
thanks alot! :)
