Whananaki to Sandy Bay

Over the next couple days we checked out Sandy Bay and Whananaki area. Originally we were going to rent some stand-up paddle boards, but was a bit too windy so we decided on a surf day instead. Sandy bay was a perfect place for me to practice since it was less intimidating then some areas. I've only surfed 2 times in my life, so its pretty new, but had a great time! Surfing is definitely hard! And its hard for me to not be good at something right away... I guess a little practice can't hurt!
The next day we decided on a coast hike from Whananaki south to Sandy Bay. Its funny because its about 10 km one way which took us about 2 hours to walk and it was a 75 min drive to the bay the day before! Next time we would just take our bikes along the coastal route and then get someone to drop off some surf boards at the other side! Another stunning view of the east coast.Läs mer
