Coromandel summer tips and information
The Coromandel celebrates summer by hosting many visitors and events and to help make sure everyone has equal access to
and enjoyment of all our beaches and reserves, we have a few summer tips to please keep in mind..
Our "Coromandel Summer Tips" brochure can be viewed online here or pick up a copy from one of our services centres.
The brochure provides a summary of some rules in place across the District - so we can all enjoy summertime on the
Coromandel - as well as making sure that what we do does not have a harmful impact on others and on the landscape around
us.
Some things to know about over summer is that we have liquor bans in place ove peak summer. The Alcohol Bans include holiday long weekends, and note you can get an instant fine of $250 or be arrested if you breach the ban.
