We'll shortly be publishing the results from our August 2026 community survey describing what kind of community we want Hot Water Beach to be in 10, 20, 30 years' time.
Hot Water Beach has a strong history from Ngāti Hei's settlement of Te Puia Pā and connection with this coastline, to The Pye family transformation into productive farmland and the first subdivision shaping the foundations of the community we know today.
Building on these solid foundations is our opportunity to shape the future of Hot Water Beach and it's evolution for future generations of Ngāti Hei, local residents, businesses and visitors.
Register now to ensure you receive the results and the start of a community discussions about our walkways, visitor amenities, growth opportunities, environmental protection and infrastructure improvements.
