Cooks Beach lines the southern shore of Mercury Bay, named for the spot in its dunes where James Cook and astronomer Charles Green observed the 1769 transit of Mercury, fixing New Zealand's place on the world map. The Purangi River mouth and Lonely Bay sit at one end, with Shakespeare Cliff and the Cathedral Cove coast around the headland. It is a relaxed Coromandel holiday settlement, a passenger ferry hop across the harbour from Whitianga.
