One of the most beautiful beaches in NZ. We saw dolphins out in the bay. Not close in Whale Bay itself. It's a perfect beach for a safe swim. There's so much shade from the pohutakawa trees. The ten minute walk is very pretty too.

Fluffy sand, clear water, tiny fish, trees for shade, toilet facilities, calm water in a sheltered bay. Such warm water in the shallow part. Really beautiful beach.

With a quick 5-10 minute walk into Whale Bay, how could you not make this a stop on your to do list. This is an easy walk in with kids, there are a short flight of steep stairs on the way out, but it's quick so if you end up having to carry one back up you won't suffer too much. A beautiful spot, gorgeous views, soft yellow sand. There are public toilet facilities here too. A great spot down the eastern end by the rock pools for kids.

Perfect secluded and sheltered beach with excellent shade from the pohutukawa trees. Great snorkelling on the rocks, lots of fish to see. Definitely worth the short walk down a well-maintained track.
