039at new years- take a good sturdy pair of shoes that you don't mind getting sand in, but will protect you from glass. there's usually a liqour bn on too, so buy your own and bring it up, then stay somewhere and drink BEFORE you go out.

0153Whangamata tends to be more expensive than the neighbouring towns, so if possible take food etc. with you, and try out the cheaper/free activities in the area... and possibly stay down the road, out-of-town.
