Ohope Beach is the jewel of the Bay of Plenty on New Zealand's North Island, located near the small town of Opotiki and about 30 minutes' drive from the center of the Bay of Plenty, Tauranga. The 11-kilometer crescent-shaped black sand beach, with its fine volcanic sand and clear Pacific waters, is ideal for swimming, surfing, snorkeling and sunbathing. The town's backdrop of Mt. Waikarimoana and its open ocean frontage provide great views, especially at sunrise and sunset. Known for its tranquil atmosphere and unspoiled nature, Opaheke is away from the hustle and bustle of the city for those seeking relaxation and nature. The local area also retains a strong Maori cultural heritage, and visitors can experience traditional Maori cultural performances or explore the surrounding trails, such as the Waikarimoana Trail, overlooking the entire bay and coastline. The year-round mild climate makes this a four-season destination, whether it's for summer sea activities or winter hiking.
