Pohutukawa Coast Area
 

The Pohutukawa Coast lies to the east of Auckland City, a distance of approx 50 km by road, and to the northeast of Manukau City approx 20 km by road. Move from the hustle and bustle of city life and traffic, to the more relaxed lifestyles of semi-rural Auckland before confronting the wonderful coastline and seascapes of The Pohutukawa Coast.

You will join the Pacific Coast Highway when you reach the country village of Whitford, our “Gateway to the Coast”, and following the highway leads you to the seaside township of Beachlands, the Omana Regional Park, the seaside settlements of Omana & Maraetai Beaches and ultimately, after driving the wonderful Coast Road, to Umupia/Duders’s Beach and Duder Regional Park where The Pohutukawa Coast ends. Turning inland at the end of the beach and following the North Road will take you to the rural and historic village of Clevedon.

Yes, great site Sarah. I was in the Cafe at Beachlands today and they had a pamphlet advertsing the new website. I thought it would be good to put on here as a few people ask about the area and sometimes it is hard to explain to people what the area is like.

Here is another site to look at for spinekar Bay at Beachlands:
