Last week we had 2 couples stay at Waihi Beach on their honeymoons from the UK & Germany.

With the couple from the UK the guy had been to New Zealand 10 years ago and was here showing off NZ to his new wife and was full of the praise of the scenery beauty in and around Waihi Beach and Southern Coromandel.
The German couple were from Luxembourg - both were young doctors and marvelled about the beaches and natural beauty - they commented there was not much left in Germany. They thought Waihi Beach was just awesome despite the weather not being that great - it is spring after all.
They mentioned they felt the quality of life in New Zealand would be much better than in Europe and in Germany from what they had seen so far on their trip.
Both couples said they chose New Zealand because of its beauty and being so far away from home it was just a special place to come.They really enjoyed the coast and the beach.
