Take a shovel in the beach to dig a natural hot spring of their own, dig open the beach under the geothermal water will come up, and very hot! Soaking in a hot spring facing the sea is so cool!
I've heard about it for a long time, but I just came here recently, so I have coffee first, mud bath on the beach after low tide, soak in geothermal hot springs, and then dinner on the sea in the evening! This itinerary is suitable for travel to the North Island of New Zealand, people in Auckland, do not want to go to the regular attractions of friends!
First of all, it is necessary to determine the Tide time of the beach on the day, arrive at the beach 2H after the Low tide, and walk to 📍Hotwater Springs - Low Tide. Hot water does not spread all over the beach, to the anchor point, look at the beach reef, on the side of the reef excavation near the sea basically have hot water. Spend 5 minutes digging all over the beach, knowing which hole has hot water, and digging next to that hole.
Where the more people dig! E people can directly take over the hot water pit of foreign friends who are ready to leave the beach! If you feel your feet burning, dig a cold water drain next to it! Be sure to keep digging, there will always be hot water, hot water is really hot feet, the water in the pit is hot, wave after wave outside the pit, the water is still cold... That was fun!
Secondly, the digging tool is of course the most important, you can choose to carry yourself, or you can like the nearby coffee shop to rent; If possible, it is also a good idea to bring a small bucket of cold water, because the hot water dug out can be extremely hot (⚠️ some as high as 60℃).
After digging the hole, you can comfortably lie in it and enjoy the leisure time of about an hour. When the tide rises again and the cold water begins to pour back, it means that this wonderful and short leisure time is over.
Be sure to pick a sunny day to go, the sea is very beautiful, do not need to tone, the beach can be seen by the naked eye in the heat, there is a really hot feet!! The temperature is quite high, but it is very suitable for hot springs when it is mixed with seawater. It's really fun to dig your own hot springs with spades!
