Tay Beach Break!

Tay Beach Break!

Sightseeing

This is a 30-40 minute walk (it's steep in places with stairs) but the 360 view is so worth the effort, go at sunrise it is truly unique!! You can go straight up or vary the journey there’s lots of paths going in all directions around and down 😊. If you don't have that much energy then take the path around the Mount base in either direction, if you are lucky there might be some seals playing on the channel side, it’s a beautiful walk anytime of the day, very popular stroll or run!

Lovely gentle bay on the other side from the surf beach, very short walk from the bay to the beach, great for kayaking or paddleboarding, safe paddling, and swimming for toddlers.

Food scene

The Mount has so many wonderful restaurants cafes and bars, here are a few that I have been to and would recommend to my guests.
Turn left out the driveway for a 3-minute stroll to the Tay Street Beach or stop at the cafe, grab a coffee at the store , lots of varieties of cute doggies and their owners!! Have brunch at the cafe, my recommendation is the chilli-scrambled eggs super yum yum! seafood chowder hard to beat too 🦞

This is an exquisite Asian fusion cuisine restaurant with well lantern decorations in Papamoa (super hard to get in, try your luck, and go down 5.30 ish or book ahead). I love the food and vibe here! Lovely decor too and food presentation

Great coffee, buzzy and gorgeous across the road from the main beach and the start of the Mount trails to the summit or around the base, good food for breakfast or lunch, has a resort feel, reminds me of the beachside cafe scene of the Sunshine Coast, Queensland, Aussie
