Waihi Beach and its identity

When we moved here to Waihi Beach friends from Auckland and others wondered why we moved to Waihi. We explained we had moved to Waihi Beach  for our business and it is  some 10ks approx from Waihi - its like comparing Mt Albert with Takapuna except they have similar names. The climates are quite different - our son works up at the Martha gold mine in Waihi and used to come home and talk about the wet day he had been through - we would look at each other and say what rain? The people who live in Waihi Beach are also quite different - they are a mix of retirees and younger folk who have chosen to live at the beach. The Beach has  very much a Waikato link with many homes /batches owned by  people originally from that region.Waihi Beach is a great seaside town on the east coast  and it is the jewel in the crown of both the Coromandel and Bay of Plenty regions.
