What a lovely beach! There's a $5 entry fee to visit this private beach, but it's defintiely worthwhile. There is usually someone there to take the cash, but if not there's an honesty box as well. There's a long gravel drive from the pavement down to the grass parking lot, usually not very crowded. The beach itself is generally wide and sandy, though there are a handful of boulders in the water that make it interesting. On the north side, there are numerous tide pools where you and the kids can explore and fin crabs, snails, fish, etc. Keep in mind, it's pretty wild, which makes it so beautiful. But that also means no lifeguards and no facilities.
Beautiful long beach with wide, soft sand, and good swimming and surfing. It closes at 6PM daily (closes at 5 PM in the winter months) and has to be accessed with a privately maintained driveway at a cost of $5 per vehicle, per entry. It’s very much worth the small fee! If you have a 4-wheel drive vehicle, there is an access ramp at the parking lot, and you can drive along the beach, too! (Don’t try it if you don’t have a good 4-wheel drive...the sand is pretty loose in many spots and you will probably get stuck...) Amazing cliffs and scenic rocky beach along the northern part. It is never crowded, but the parking lot can get full on weekends or holidays. It is most definitely one of our favorite beaches in New Zealand!! Plan to spend several hours here!
The beach itself is great, good for the family etc but the owners of access to the beach placing rules for a public space is questionable... But I'm also happy that the people on the beach didn't care and did what they wanted anyways was refreshing to see also. So yeah, if you can hide what they don't want you to do and get away with it then you'll have a lovely day.
Is an ok beach for swimming with some rocks for kids to look at, but nothing much more special than the beaches nearby that are free to access. We saw an eagle ray in knee deep water which was nice. $5 entry fee per adult and children are free so it's not unreasonably priced for a less busy spot to park and swim. Gates are locked 6pm-6am in summer months. Beach is very shallow, not ideal for surfcasting.
