Depends upon your level of motion sickness, from what I can remember it will involve a fairly long, over 2 hours, maybe say 3 hours depending upon when you are travelling, of road travel on decent roads but there will be some hilly sections with winding roads from Kopu on-wards towards Hahei , here you will have to park before either walking or getting the bus to the cove area followed by more walking down to the cove, or you can get a boat ferry from Hahei but again that would depend upon your level of motion sickness.Hope this helps.

Hi. What's the recommended mode of transport from Whitianga town to Cathedral Cove (we don't have a car). Thank you.
A:
We rented a car and drove to all our destinations. We are used to going it on our own. But there are shuttles that will take you. Just ask your concierge desk.
