Car Hire Whakatane - Mini guide to Whakatane
Located in the Bay of Plenty region in the North Island of New Zealand, Whakatane has had settlements in the area since 1200 AD. You will wish to acquire a vehicle from a car hire agency to afford yourself the privacy of seeing the sites on your own terms and not limited by a tour or public transport.
You will find as you drive that the town is home to many diverse industries such as dairy farming, fishing, and forestry. There is also a paper mill. You will most assuredly want to travel the forty-eight kilometers to White Island, which is where you will find New Zealand’s most active volcano.
Many tourists are happy they used a car hire service as there are many different activities to enjoy in Whakatane such as swimming with dolphins, watching the whales, finding a ship and taking a chartered fishing cruise. You can enjoy each of these on your own schedule if you use a car hire agency.
You can even enjoy a night of amateur astronomy or maybe you would be more likely to enjoy bushwalking.
Bus services are particularly limited as are taxis within the city. A car hire service is truly the best way to go to see all the sights and enjoy the shopping that Whakatane offers. When you wear out make sure to stop at the natural hot springs to be rejuvenated in the wonderfully warm water straight from Mother Nature. They even have accommodations right there should you decide to stay.
When it is time to leave, a quick drive to the airport and drop off your car and you are on the way back home with only great memories and fabulous purchases. Your trip was far more enjoyable since you chose to use the efficient car hire services available.
