Paeroa is well known for its mineral springs, which provided the water used in a local soft drink which has become a New Zealand favourite, Lemon & Paeroa.

Lemon & Paeroa (or L&P) has a playful slogan "World Famous in New Zealand" and perhaps the largest soft drink statue in the world is in the town of Paeroa.

It is suggested Paeroa's greatest asset is its geographical location – at the intersection of State Highways 2 and 26. This puts Paeroa in the middle of everywhere (there are more people living within 150km of Paeroa than within 150km of Auckland). Paeroa is the central service location for the Hauraki District with the town being an ideal midway stop for those who are travelling between Auckland and Tauranga/Rotorua. Located approximately half way between Auckland and Tauranga, Paeroa is also the southern gateway to the Coromandel Peninsula, the eastern gateway to the Bay of Plenty and the Karangahake Gorge. More recently Paeroa has been described as "Base Camp" for many an adventure in and around the Coromandel/Waikato area.

Attractions:
Whilst Paeroa is home to New Zealand’s very own soft drink, ‘Lemon and Paeroa’, Paeroa is also famous for a variety of beautiful locations, attractions, events and boasts about 20 antique & secondhand stores.
Attractions include bush, river and town walks, an historic Maritime Park, a full golf course and the Maritime Museum, together with the antiques and collectables trail, and arts and crafts outlets are among other notable local features.
