- 335Takapuna BeachTakapunaBig beach with room to kick a ball (and not hit into anyone!). So close to Takapuna shops, cafes and restaurants so you can pop up for an ice cream then head back and relax on the warm sand.
- 42Torpedo BayDevonportGreat beach right in the heart of Devonport. Lovely views towards the city and Mission Bay/St Heliers. Great place for watching the boats. Grab some fish and chips and sit in the park or on the sand.
