At Mercury Bay, found on Coromandel Peninsula on the North Island of New Zealand, Whitianga is the main settlement and the centre of the region's cultural heritage.
Maori presence has been felt here for over a millennium, and Captain James Cook visited in 1769 to observe the Transit of Mercury, recognised by a granite cairn at Cooks Beach.
Today, the stars still shine just as clearly over the bay.
Visitors should take time to explore Whitianga harbour, from which a passenger ferry crosses to Ferry Landing, near Cooks Beach.
Every August, the Scallop Festival is held to enjoy the delicious fresh seafood available from the bay.
From Whitianga hotels, travellers are in the perfect spot to reach the best beaches on the peninsula as well as the historic town of Coromandel and the scenic Tairua.
At Hot Water Beach in Coromandel, a star attraction, visitors can dig their own hot pools to enjoy the two hot springs just beneath the surface.
