New Chums Beach

#summervacay New Chums Beach (Wainuiototo Bay) is a hidden gem often listed among the top unspoiled beaches in the world. Located on the northeast coast of the Coromandel Peninsula, it’s only accessible via a 30–40 minute walk through native bush and over rocks, which keeps the crowds away. The beach rewards the effort with powdery white sand, turquoise water, and a complete lack of commercial development—no shops, roads, or buildings in sight. Summer is the ideal time to visit, as the water is warm and the weather ideal for a peaceful beach day. It’s perfect for travelers looking for untouched, raw beauty.
