New Zealand beaches
In-the-know visitors to this best New Zealand beach candidate pack shovels and arrive around
two hours before or after low tide.
That's so they can dig a hole at the tide line and relax in a personal, natural hot springs spa --
at least until the tide comes up and the waves end the fun.
2. Piha Beach, West Auckland-The birthplace of Malibu board riding in New Zealand, Piha is the
country's most famous surfing beach as well as one of best New Zealand beaches.
3. Karekare, West Auckland-Karekare tends to be less inundated with tourists than nearby Piha. If you
prefer a quieter beach, this is the one for you.
The water can be extremely rough and swimming only "between the flags" is advised.
Karekare is popular for its annual beach race day, in which local ponies and horses race to raise money
for local causes. Beach race day is usually held in early April.
4. Kaiteriteri Beach, Nelson-Golden sand and the highest rate of sunshine hours in New Zealand mean
