New Brighton Beach

Beautiful beach in Christchurch and really nice during sunrise and sunset times. Good place to enjoy time with your friends and family.

There’s a decent walking track offshore, perfect for an easy stroll along the beach. The pier provides a great spot for fishing.

Something about the New Bright Pier. The infinity sea and the long beach is just stunning. Also the Brighton Libra is a great spot to relax and chill. Highly recommended.

Beautiful beach, especially at sunrise/sunset. Dog friendly off-leash EXCEPT November-March from 9am to 7pm.nWatch out for blue bottle jellyfish, sometimes there's heaps of them around and are dangerous for humans and dogs.nThere's 2 decent size carparks. Nice café, a library, kids playgrounds, and the hot pools right next to the beach, so plenty of things to do around there too!

Beautiful beach, with a peir, playground, restaurant, library and some hot pools all on the beach-side. The beach is known for some pretty cold winds, so you'll need a jacket, especially in the winter. The beach is very long, it has lots of space for those walking, running, surfing, and sun bathing. There are free sunscreen stations at a couple of the main entrances to the beach, public toilets right next to the pools, and by the peir. The peir is wheelchair accessible from the right. The beach is a great place to sit and have a good view of the moon or have a gaze at the stars on a clear night.
