Tourism Bay of Plenty

The Bay of Plenty is a popular summer destination, renowned for its world-class beaches. Following the worldwide travel restrictions caused by Coronavirus, we collaborated with Tourism Bay of Plenty to develop their most ambitious domestic campaign yet.

“The idea is unique because it comes from a place of passion and authenticity.”
