Greetings Everyone - Join us this Sunday as we walk down the Waikorea Stream to the beach and walk along the beach to Crayfish Point.
● Some words to Inspire you:
Trekking along the Waikorea Stream to the beach is an adventure through untouched nature, combining a scenic waterway, lush native bush, and a rugged west coast shoreline.
The journey begins by following the Waikorea Stream, weaving through farmland and dense greenery, where you might spot native birds such as tūī and kererū. As you reach the black sand beach, the vast Tasman Sea opens before you, offering a dramatic contrast to the inland tranquility.
Walking north along the coastline, the raw beauty of this remote beach is striking, with towering cliffs and rolling surf. The journey leads to Crayfish Point, a rocky outcrop known for its rich marine life and stunning coastal views.
At low tide, rock pools and exposed reefs provide a chance to explore sea life up close. This trek offers solitude, breathtaking scenery, and the perfect escape into the wild beauty of New Zealand’s west coast.

Upcoming events (4+)
See all- Devonport - North HeadKestrel Pub, Auckland
Greetings Everyone - Join us on Wednesday for our Winter midweek walks from Devonport to North Head.
● Some words to Inspire you:
Stepping off the Devonport ferry, you’re greeted by the scent of salt air and the gentle call of gulls. The walk begins past heritage villas and blooming pōhutukawa, their branches etched against the sky like brushstrokes. Seaglass glints along the shoreline as the path curves by Cheltenham Beach, where kids dig moats and dogs chase tides, even in winter’s low sun.As you approach North Head, its grassy rise looms quietly, waiting. The path winds steeply now, lined with flax and whispers of history—tunnels carved deep, batteries silent but still watchful. Near the summit, Auckland sprawls behind you in shimmering blues and silver spires.
At the top, the wind greets you first. Then the view. Rangitoto lies sentinel in the distance, and the Hauraki Gulf unfolds wide and wild. For a moment, all is still—just you, the sea, and the long exhale of a city at your back.
