“Fabulous golden and white sand beaches with magnificent coastal scenery, a rugged forest-cloaked interior waiting to be explored and one of New Zealand's best surfing breaks are just some of the natural attractions that have people returning to Whangamata time after time.”
Whangamata Beach is one of New Zealand's most famous surf breaks, particularly the Whangamata Bar. The left hand break attracts surfers from around the world. At either end of Whangamata Beach are estuaries that are great for exploring by kayak or SUP (stand up paddle boards). Surf boards, SUP boards and kayaks can all be hired in town. The beach is also a great spot to relax due to its proximity to town. It is also great for walking and running along the 6km beach. Care must be taken in the dunes and fenced off areas to protect the endangered Dotterel bird species.
