About Camina Restaurant & Bar
Camina is a Spanish tapas-style restaurant at 708 Port Road, specialising in wood-fired shared plates. Menu highlights include patatas bravas, lamb skewers with spiced eggplant and buttermilk dressing, housemade ricotta tostada, and mushroom skewers. The intimate space seats small groups of up to 6, with a chef’s table offering a view of the wood fire cooking. Open Wednesday to Saturday from 5:15pm; reservations recommended.
Located just a short stroll from the Whangamata Marina, Camina offers a vibrant and authentic Spanish dining experience on the Coromandel. We recommend booking in advance, especially during summer weekends and public holidays, to secure a table in our intimate venue. Ample parking is available on Port Road.
What truly sets Camina apart is our commitment to authentic, wood-fired flavour and local sourcing. Our custom-built wood oven is the heart of the kitchen, imparting a unique smokiness to every shared plate. We partner with Coromandel producers to bring the freshest regional ingredients to your table, creating a perfect fusion of Spanish tradition and New Zealand bounty.
