Te Puke

Located 28km southeast of Tauranga and known as the Kiwifruit Capital of New Zealand, there are a wide range of things to see and do in this sunny town.

Fly high above the Bay of Plenty in a helicopter, go horse riding in the sprawling countryside, take a stroll through one of the many walking tracks available, take a picture of the giant kiwifruit statue, or partake in a game of paintball with the kids.

An idyllic holiday destination, there are a range of accommodation options to choose from, from an old fashioned holiday park, an orchard stay, a beachfront retreat, a campsite, or a motel. Wherever you stay, Te Puke is one of those classic ‘good vibe’ small towns where you can sit back, relax, and enjoy life in the slow lane, whatever time of year you visit.
