Money money money!
Pauanui is on the East Coast of the Coromandel, and is heavily geared towards watersports and beach activities. It is an attractive area, well looked after, with a good beach and excellent facilities. A large percentage of the population is temporary, with many people (mainly Aucklanders) having holiday homes here. Property here is expensive - and it shows!In more recent years, the modern 'Waterways' development has given rise to Pauanui's 'playground for the rich' reputation. Here you won't find your 'average' kiwi (not just my opinion, but also that of several kiwi friends). But you will see some very big houses, and lots of very big shiny boats! It really ought to be done. Accquire a motorised dinghy, and tour the Waterways, taking care to dodge the jetski's, and admire the houses, the boats, and the inhabitants on show!
