Hello, Just thinking about doing a day trip to some landbased spots up coromandel once we are out of this lockdown. Would be glad of any spots anyone could share. Thanks

There is heaps up there mate but all depends what you want to target and how far you want to drive, as well as if you are willing to put in a decent walk once you turn the car off.

Hopefully by mid Dec this mission can be possible!
