Ocean Beach is an absolutely stunning piece of Northland’s coast. Can be still and hot or wild and moody depending on the season and weather. Climb around the rocks at low tide or over the hill to an even more expansive beach. Swim. Surf. Walk for hours. Collect shells. Watch the waves. Also links to excellent tracks and look outs. (Surf life savers on duty through summer months)
