Auckland

Another of Aucklands  popular West Coast Surf Beach- approx 25 min from the CBD.

On the black sanded, wild West Coast is the popular Bethell’s Beach, only 30 Kilometres from Auckland’s CBD.
Surfers are attracted by its great waves, and activities such as parasailing and hang gliding are also popular, along with fishing from the rocks, surf casting, swimming, sunbathing and bush walks. The beach can attract quite large crowds (well, large by NZ standards!), both local and international, during the summer months to this beautiful area, but you’re sure to find a secluded spot if needed!

The Beach is on the Western side of New Zealands North Island so is exposed to big surf waves from all the way across the Tasman sea to Australia.

This gives the beach fine soft sand, and strong surf waves. This can make the surf dangerous with rip currents dragging the unwary along the coast, or even out to sea.
