It is the most populated city in the Bay of Plenty, and is also the economic and tourist hub of the area along with Mount Maunganui, its direct neighbor. The Maoris settled here at the end of the 13th century and gave it its name, which means "protected waters". Today it is one of the country's largest ports and its fifth largest population center. Its fertile hinterland attracts workers in kiwi (especially Te Puke) and lemon farming, while its waterfront is a popular tourist destination for families and backpackers alike.I-SITE at 103 The Strand, open from 9am to 5pm (+64 7 578 810)
