Don't forget to wear shoes if visiting in summer. Sand gets pretty hot. Watch out for the currents in the water and stay between the flags. A bush walk completes a good days outing.

Worth the trip for some black sand and surfing. Lesson are available and the teachers are quite friendly and helpful.

This is a popular West Coast beach made famous by "Piha Rescue." Can be very dangerous for swimmers but there are long beach walks on the edge of the wild west coast.

Many thanks to the locals who allowed us privacy for this event!

beautiful drive to Piha - hot blcak sand beach with a bush walk around the waterfront to a bird rock (hundreds of birds nesting on a rock just next to the one in the picture) Really strong surf beach which makes swimming hard

Piha is incredible. Amazing views, amazing vibe ... simply the best place in Auckland. Grab a coffee from the cafe and have a walk on the beach or climb Lion Rock or the lookout ... summer or winter it's incredible. Be safe in the water though - swim between the flags!

Loved it there, very quiet. Hear it's a different story in the holidays and weekends, but I will keep clear during those times!
