Coromandel takes its name from the HMS Coromandel,
which dropped anchor here in 1820 to load kauri
logs for the English navy. The trunks of young
kauri trees are very straight and strong - ideal
for ships' masts and spars. The Coromandel’s
other treasure, gold, was discovered around 30
years later. Although the serious mining days
are over, the town has New Zealand’s last
fully functional stamper battery - still on its
original site and working on a daily basis. Coromandel
also has many restored Victorian buildings. Other
local attractions include a narrow gauge mountain
railway, mining museum and the Coromandel Coastal
Walkway. Functional facts: Approx. population
1450, i-SITE Visitor Centre, good range of shops.
