Coromandel Peninsula, New Zealand |
||||||
 |
||||||
|
||||||
| The Coromandel Peninsula lies across the Hauraki Gulf from Auckland on the North Island of New Zealand. The Coromandel Range divides the peninsula between east and west. The volcanic origins of these mountains have created craggy outcrops, steep cliffs, and fertile soils. The area’s beaches are popular with tourists, and the peninsula supports a thriving community of artists and craftspeople. | ||||||
