Beautiful 4km beach with very few people on it out of main holiday season - soft white sand and easy access. Matarangi itself is limited in facilities but there is a cafe, 4 Square, bottle shop (high end choices too, but definitely not cheap) golf club & restaurant. Close/easy access to plenty of other stunning beaches and not far from Coromandel town. Luke's Kitchen at Kuaotunu is a must visit for great pizza and other superb food with a huge boutique (and local) beer selection. Plenty of beaches but really you'd be happy with only Matarangi beach, and the option of the inlet for calm-water activities like SUP/windsurfing/kayaking etc. Probably heaven for anyone into golf, but for us its main attraction is a great beach getaway - likely busy in season but peaceful out of season (doesn't just shut up shop like some other resorts though).

Nice little community. Mainly exists around the golf club and some beaches. Very quite and relaxing. The only drawbacks are: 1) lack of activities (pretty much only golf, cycling, walking and swimming) and 2) places to eat out (realistically, only two cafes/bars).
