About Miranda Hot Springs

Thermal mineral pools on Front Miranda Road in Miranda, near Thames on the Coromandel. The water comes from thermal springs that have been used since before European settlement, and the present pool was built in 1959 and 1960. The largest pool is 47 metres by 17 metres, at 36 to 38 degrees depending on the season, with an aqua-lift for accessible entry. There is a children's pool at a cooler temperature, an adult-only sauna pool at around 40 to 41 degrees, and four private spa pools.

The grounds have coin-operated electric barbecues, a jumping pillow, an adventure playground and a games room, and the site covers two acres. The website says renovations are still under way. Visitors can bring food to eat on site.
