Mount Maunganui
New Zealand
A photogenic seaside suburb of Tauranga on New Zealand's North Island, Mount Maunganui takes its name from the large lava dome — known in Māori as Mauao, meaning "large mountain" — that rises from the peninsula and offers scenic views over the surrounding coast. The area has a strong café and restaurant scene for its size, and the waterfront is within easy walking distance of the town centre.
