Tapu Beach

Fantastic location with a sandy beach. You can park quite close, and there are benches available too. We visited in the mid-afternoon so the kids could play and we could relax and enjoy the weather. I think there's also freedom camping here, which would likely be wonderful at this spot.

An amazing freedom camping location right on the beach. Nearby amenities include toilets and a general store. Ideal for a summer swim and some adventurous tree swings. 10/10.

A very quiet spot on Christmas Eve, with a public toilet within walking distance, a picnic table, and a wheelie bin for rubbish. On Christmas morning, we were delighted by a visit from three kids who brought us a Christmas present—two lovely teenage girls and a boy. It was such a sweet and lovely treat. We feel proud of their family. 👍🏻❤️ Arohanui

This is my favorite overnight spot during the summer. When the tides are right, it's a great area for swimming and walking. It's just a short stroll down to the local pub, chip shop, and public restrooms. Make sure to keep your dogs on leads at all times, as it's also a shore bird nesting area.

It was a nice, peaceful spot to spend the evening. The beach is somewhat rocky but still manageable. There were plenty of people kayaking and paddle boarding nearby. We enjoyed a beautiful sunset, at least on the night we visited.
