This beach is a fantastic place for a picnic since it's not very crowded, but it's not ideal for swimming due to the muddy and shell-filled water.
This beach in the Auckland area is one of our favorites! It has a wide sandy beach with a walkway and biking path nearby. Behind the beach, there is a grassy area with shade trees, benches, and seating perfect for picnics. It's a fantastic spot for swimming or paddle boarding, and there is even a boat dock. Across the street, you'll find Vellenoweth Green, a large park with plenty of open grass for activities or family gatherings, as well as some iconic huge trees.
Disfrutamos visitando las playas del este de Auckland, incluida la serena playa de Howick. En diciembre La playa estaba agradablemente desierta, lo que nos permitió apreciar plenamente el ambiente tranquilo y la suave brisa del mar. Si se encuentra en las cercanías o reside en East Auckland, le sugerimos de todo corazón visitar esta encantadora playa.
Waiomanu Beach is a hidden gem in East Auckland. My husband and I watched the sunrise there in Jan 2024. The beach is incredibly beautiful and tranquil, with hardly anyone around. We highly recommend watching the sunrise at Waiomanu Beach if you live in Maraetai or are driving by.
