Beach Info
Waiotahe Beach is popular during the summer months attracting swimmers, surfers and anglers who use the beach and nearby river mouths year round. The beach changes a great deal between high and low tide and is much safer for swimmers during the high tide when the rips aren't as strong. Swimmers are advised to stay between the flags and ask Lifeguards for advice.
