The town of Pauanui meaning Big Paua (abalone) in Maori is on the east coast of the Coromandel Peninsula in the North Island of New Zealand. It lies at the mouth of the Tairua River on its south bank, directly opposite the larger town of Tairua. It has a resident population of 699. The two settlements are 30 kilometres east of Thames. Several islands lie off the mouth of the river, notably Slipper Island to the southeast and the Alderman Islands 20 kilometres to the East. The area is a popular holiday destination, with an estimated summer holiday maker population of over 15,000, and is popularly imagined as a resort enclave for Auckland's upper-middle classes - properties with views of the ocean are regularly sold for over NZ$1 million. The settlement has an airstrip used by recreational light-aircraft pilots and is noted for game fishing, diving,surfing, and its excellent beach.

Nestled into the East Coast of the Coromandel Peninsula, due east of Thames and on the southern side of the Tairua Harbour, Pauanui is essentially a spit which has formed at the conjunction of wave and river action of the north side of the Pauanui headland. The result is a sheltered and idyllic settlement attracting vacationers and settlers alike. It is conveniently located some 150 kilometers by road from Auckland and Hamilton. The Pauanui airstrip is within 30 minutes of Auckland airport via charter flight or private plane. Sourced with thanks from Tour.thepeninsula.co.nz/pauanui
