Beach Info
Riversdale Beach is a popular seaside resort in the Wairarapa. The beach has a solid residential base and there are numerous holiday homes. The beach also has a motor camp, shop and golf course that attract people to the area. The beach is safe when there is only a small wave but large dangerous swells are common here and all beach users need to be very careful. Swimmers should stay in the Lifeguard patrolled area and all beach users should ask the Lifeguards for advice if they are in doubt.
