Cheltenham Beach

Always a lovely place to go. Safe for young children and easy access to the beach. Great views across to Rangitoto

One of the most accessible spots for kitesurfing beginners. Very shallow. But mind the tide because it does not work in high tide

Amazing atmosphere! Busy with people and dogs and lovely weather to spend a picnic day with family and friends! Must visit!

Wonderful swimming spot, beach can be better when tides are gentle.

At low tide you can go at least a couple hundred meters into the sea and the water would only reach mid calf. We went on a weekday arvo and it was pretty quiet. Public toilets and changing rooms available at Balmain Reserve near mid way of the stretch of the beach. Outdoor shower at Matai Road beach entrance.

Really enjoy going to Cheltenham. One of the last bastions of quiet beaches with a beautiful outlook onto Rangitoto. We typically stop at the Supermarket on the way to grab stuff so we can hang out for 4-5hrs. Some big trees for shelter as well.

Beautiful beach in Devonport. Swimming is best at high tide. And it's great to walk around Maungauika North Head when it's closer to low tide. Great spot for taking photos. Popular beach for paddleboarding, kayaking and also kite surfing and foiling.

Great beach and a good Kitesurfing spot.

Absolutely love our local beach. Stunning sunrises over Rangitoto. A favourite for kite surfers when the wind picks up. Lovely calm water ideal for SUP and kayaking for kids. At low tide the kids can walk about 200m in and play in the puddles. Lots of space to have a picnic in one of the adjacent parks or on the beach

Lovely wee beach, lots of shells about, makes it not as nice to walk on as sand. Great views and walks though. Nice wee park for kids next to it, and public toilets with changing rooms.
