Public pools & Water park in Tauranga

“Peter and his Team installed our pool for us. They are amazing to work with, very professional and helpful. We are stoked with the outcome of our pool and highly recommend Penguin Pools.”

“Clean and good temperature. Could do with a cafe on the premises as passouts are not given as a rule.”

“Martin offered excellent local service. He arrived when he said he would with excellent communication , his prices are great value and he stands by his quotes. He went the extra mile when our spa developed a seperate problem and came around to fix on his own weekend time. Highly recommended.”

“We purchased a spa from Moana Spas and after 18 months it developed a problem caused by a very rare manufacturing defect. Moana Spas gave us a full warranty replacement. Totally brilliant service and great to deal with a company that has the backing of their manufacturer. Thanks to Claire , Sarah and Andy for your outstanding service.”

“What a cool spot. Felt like going for a swim and found this place on Google. We really enjoyed our day out here.”

“The Okere river is famed for its kayaking and white water rafting which if you are lucky you’ll be able to watch from some of the view points. Some great scenery and a chance to get close to the water. There are some trails to walk and a decent amount of car parking.”

“What a great place. Our kids had a blast! Bathrooms are clean and it was just a great day. Will recommend anyone to go here”

“It's a really lovely walk to see some rapids and waterfalls. We didn't see them, but people do white water rafting and kayaking on this river! Not sure if they go down the waterfall, but that'd be incredible to see. The walk wasn't epic, we did it with a baby strapped to us and it was doable.”

“My friends and I had an absolute blast white water rafting experience. From the moment we got on the raft, it was non-stop fun, laughter, and pure adrenaline. We couldn’t stop smiling the entire time! A huge shoutout to our guide, Jasper, who made the whole experience unforgettable. He kept the energy high, made sure we felt safe, and turned every moment into something exciting. We had so much fun that we’re already talking about when we can do it again. If you’re thinking about trying white water rafting—DO IT. This was hands down one of the best adventures we’ve had! We’ll definitely be back for round two!”

“Grade 5 whitewater rafting sounds scary enough for a non-confident swimmer, but Kaitiaki Adventures' guides know what they are doing. All gear were provided for. Sam, our guide, made sure all of us were safe and had a lot of fun. The guides took time to teach us how to be respectful of nature. The power of the water and the nature surrounding the river was humbling and breathtaking (give and take a few mouthfuls of water). There are photographers all along the river, taking shots of the different moments. A proud achivement to not just have survived a Grade 5 whitewater rafting, but to have done it with all smiles around and have an exciting adventure that we would continue to talk about. We had FUN!”

“Our 16yr old boy did his first sky dive last week in Tauranga. We felt that it was safe enough for him. The guys were all great and made him feel comfortable. Highly recommend!”

“One of the most beautiful spots on earth I've ever seen, mesmerizing beauty of nature and raging water falling and giving this feeling of freedom from bonds as you watch that volume of water falling. 45 mins to the lookout, after the 100 wooden steps.”

“Great walk with different ways to the summit. View is gorgeous. 30~ mins to the top with the quickest (steepest path). I started at 7:30am on a Tuesday.”

“We stopped at the beach for a quick packed lunch and only had time to dip our feet in the water. We really liked it — definitely a place where we’d love to spend a proper beach weekend next time we’re in the area.”

“Beautiful beach, great for a hot day swim. Also, very fresh air and not much rubbish”

“The kanu glow worm tour at night was amazing! Our tour guides Derek and Joe made it so enjoyable. They were fun to talk to and informative. Joe was very knowledgeable and shared with us so many scientific facts and the Māori story on glowworms. Highly recommend a must do! Also the McLaren falls park is very underrated and a definite good stopover for a night to camp”

“This small island juts out into the sea and has a lovely, shaded walk out to the end. It used to be Leisure Island with a pool, games, rides, etc. but has been recognised as being a special place so is now free of that stuff and more formally called Moturiki. The views back to The Mount (Mauao) and the beach are amazing, especially on a sunny day.”

“2km uphill was a hike but we'll worth the views!”

“We recently had an issue with our Waihi Beach pool, and Poolworx Bay of Plenty attended. Throughout the whole process their staff were professional and helpful. It makes a difference dealing with good people with the right attitude and easy to understand why Poolworx Bay of Plenty won various awards at a recent Australasian conference in Sydney recently.”
