We arrived at Fletcher Bay on Friday laaaate at night. Actually the way to this most northern tip of Coromandel is best driven at night, because then you can easily see the oncoming traffic on those really narrow gravel roads! Fortunately there was no oncoming traffic on Friday night, just a lot of possums crossing the street (most possums even don’t leave the gravel road while cars approach – it seems like they want to be run over by cars..)

On the next morning we hiked the Coromandel Coastal Track from Fletcher Bay to Stony Bay, met some sheep and drove back south to look for some nice beaches & bays.
