Latest reviews on Huia's beaches

Karekare Beach
10 Aparna Devananda

Incredibly beautiful beach! The Karekare waterfall is only a short 5-minute stroll from the parking area. The road leading to the beach is pleasantly curvy, so it's advisable to drive at a leisurely pace as oncoming vehicles may not be visible around the bends.

Kaitarakihi Beach
10 Lorelei Zephyr

This beach is truly amazing. The car park is quite small, as is the alternative one. However, there are plenty of places to play and seek shelter from the sun. The picnic spots are absolutely beautiful. It's important to be cautious of the Pacific Ocean waters, as is typical of the West Coast. My favorite find was the oyster heart 😊.
