Karikari Peninsula Location

-34.8700, 173.3793

-34.86997, 173.37926 View on OpenStreetMap →

Karikari Peninsula sits at -34.8700°N, 173.3793°E, on the coast of New Zealand. The marker on the map shows the spot the readings on this page come from. It usually sits a short distance from the town centre, out on the open water itself, so the numbers stay tied to the coast rather than a generic point inland.

Coastlines bend, headlands focus the water, and the temperature can run noticeably differently between two beaches that look close together on a map. Comparing nearby locations is a quick way to see how local geography is shaping the readings.
