Dolly Varden Beach

Beautiful views, great place for swimming, picnic to walking even horse riding. Walking distance for fish n chips shop to enjoy on the seats provided. Even has hot outdoor shower to warm your cockles of your heart

Beautiful beach situated right on motorway in Mana, very clean toilet facilities. Pleanty of car park space. I use it as my stopover when going or coming from long way. Very clean and peaceful.

A wonderful place for families to explore or swim. Usually really busy in summer highly recommend taking a picnic qnd make it a family outing

Great beach, especially for families with young kids. No waves, shallow and warm. Public toilets and shower available. Lots of pipi and crabs which are fun to play with. Decent fish and chips down the road.

Nice sheltered beach. Great for dogs in Winter and swimming in Summer. Gets a bit deep and fast moving near the bridge. Great coffee and clean modern toilets in the car park. Great spot to launch a paddle board or kayak to explore the inlet or Porirua harbour. Watch out for the odd clown jumping off the bridges.
