About Coromandel
Coromandel is a small town on the western side of New Zealand's Coromandel Peninsula, an old gold and kauri settlement beside the Hauraki Gulf.
Coromandel Town sits on the sheltered west coast of the peninsula, facing the Hauraki Gulf, and grew in the 1850s when gold was found nearby. Kauri timber followed, and the town keeps wooden colonial buildings along its main street, a small mining museum and the studios of potters and painters. A narrow-gauge railway built by a potter climbs through replanted native forest behind the town.
