Hot Water Beach is one of New Zealand top attractions. hire a spade and dig yourself a hot pool in the sand at low tide. Hot springs under the sand will fill your hot pool with natural, thermal,warm water.
Start digging your pool at Hot Water Beach one hour before low tide. You will have two hours after the low tide or the ebbe to enjoy your hot pool. you will enjoy three hours of fun,depending on the sea and wave conditions and the slope of the beach.
