The point at Opito Coromandal - let's make this public land

Let's make this public land for all of us to enjoy. We don't want this land to end up in a foreigners hand for investment purposes who doesn't believe in our country or our beliefs, who just think about making a quick dollar.

Let's raise enough money in order to buy this land and make it a public prestiene piece.

The hills are covered in grass that has that specific lush green you only get in the North Island, with ancient volcanic rocks and plateaus scattered about.

For some Kiwis, it's the attraction of one of the Coromandel's most untouched beaches that'll be the greatest drawcard here.

The beach has great fishing, perfect for taking the boat out. It's also a very safe beach, there's no rips or steep drops, so you would be comfortable taking your kids for a swim there," says Mr Christensen.

Driving to The Point at Opito from Auckland, Tauranga or Hamilton will take you around three hours. Once there, popping to Whitianga will take 30 minutes.
