Located only 15 minutes from the cbd, He Puna Taimoana is where you can enjoy stunning ocean views while soaking in one of five luxurious hot pools. Relax and recover in the plunge pool, steam room and experience beachside views from the sauna. Afterwards stop in at Saturdays Café for something delicious to eat! The name of the pools translates as "coastal pools" or "seaside pools", and reflects the location of the pools and surrounding environment. Families will enjoy beautiful sea views from the terraced pools, the blue ocean and its ever-changing colours. The name also reflects the indigenous plants and natural environment protecting the coastline. Onsite parking and easy access to public transport routes. Open 7 days, 10am-7.30pm (late night Friday). Pre-booking essential for guaranteed entry.
