Karekare上的海滩

This coastal walk near Piha is truly amazing. It takes about 45 minutes to drive there from Auckland. As you walk through the native forest, you'll be treated to breathtaking views of the coast on your way to the secluded Whites Beach. To access the beach, it's best to combine the Marawhara trail, starting at North Piha near the surf lifesaving club, with Whites Track. This route will take you about 40-60 minutes and involves some climbing on a well-maintained trail. From there, it's a pleasant 30-minute downhill walk to Whites Beach. If you want to return, you can take the Laird Thomson Track, which will lead you back to North Piha and also includes the Te Waha Point Lookout. However, it's important to note that swimming is not advised at this beach due to its dangerous surf, strong riptides, and hidden rocks.

令人难以置信的美丽海滩！ Karekare 瀑布距离停车场仅 5 分钟步行路程。通往海滩的道路蜿蜒宜人，因此建议您以悠闲的速度行驶，因为在转弯处可能看不到迎面驶来的车辆。

This beach is truly amazing. The car park is quite small, as is the alternative one. However, there are plenty of places to play and seek shelter from the sun. The picnic spots are absolutely beautiful. It's important to be cautious of the Pacific Ocean waters, as is typical of the West Coast. My favorite find was the oyster heart 😊.
