Cape Colville is the northernmost point of the Coromandel Peninsula in New Zealand's North Island.[1] It lies 85 kilometres north of Thames, and 70 kilometres northeast of the city of Auckland, on the other side of the Hauraki Gulf. The small settlements of Port Jackson and Fletcher Bay lie immediately to the west and east respectively of the cape.

Great Barrier Island lies to the north of Cape Colville, separated from it by 20-kilometre width of the Colville Channel. The tiny Channel Island lies between the two.
