Cathedral Cove's dramatic sea arch is a genuine film location, not just a marketing label: the cave and archway were used in The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian (2008) as the passage through which the Pevensie children re-enter Narnia, with the production specifically choosing this arch to represent the portal between worlds. It's a real, verifiable filming credit — and the cove's wider scale explains why it was chosen, with towering pinnacles, giant blowholes, and sea caves including Orua Cave, one of New Zealand's largest and reachable only by boat, all carved from ignimbrite rock that erupted from the Whitianga Caldera roughly 8 million years ago.
The wider Coromandel Peninsula carries its own dramatic real history beneath the scenery. The township of Coromandel takes its name from the British Royal Navy ship HMS Coromandel, which anchored here in 1820 to load kauri timber. Gold followed in 1852, when brothers Charles and Frederick Ring found it at nearby Driving Creek, triggering New Zealand's very first gold rush; a second wave of prospectors arrived after a further quartz-gold discovery in 1862 turned a temporary mining camp into a genuine town.
The day rounds out with a picnic at Hot Water Beach, where real geothermal springs — fed from roughly two kilometres beneath the sand — surface hot enough to let you dig your own warm pool, though only for a tide-dependent window of about two hours either side of low tide.
