Thames accommodation marks the start of the Coromandel Peninsula, an old gold town on the Firth of Thames. Pollen Street keeps the verandahs and shopfronts of the boom years, and the Saturday market takes over one end of it.
Behind the town, the Kauaeranga Valley climbs into forest toward the Pinnacles, a long day’s walk from the road end. Stay in a cottage or holiday home here and the peninsula road waits until morning.
