Beach Info
Uretiti Beach is an exposed East Coast beach break popular for surfing, fishing, and swimming South of Whangārei. This area of Bream Bay is not patrolled by life guards so swimmers should always stay within their limits and and keep young children within arm's reach. Access to the beach can be done with 4x4 vehicles but always respect other beach users and ensure all rules are followed, including avoiding prohibited areas and dunes and 30km/h speed limits.
