Waiake Beach Reserve

Just need to get somewhere for a picnic and a relaxing time at the beach? Waitake is the place, less busy than Browns Bay ,get there early for a choice of close by parking, good clean toilets and changing rooms. We had a lovely picnic and played scrabble. What a great wee spot. I went with my photography mentor of many years and if course we took photos!

The views of the Tor and surrounding coastline are stunning, especially at sunrise or sunset. Parking is usually easy, and the atmosphere is relaxed and welcoming. Whether you're looking for a serene spot to unwind or a fun day out with family and friends, Waiake Beach Reserve never disappoints

Love this little local Waiake beach - so tranquil and lovely for a quick brisk beach walk.

It's a park and a beach! Beautiful shade trees, playground, restrooms. A very gradual slope continues into the water and gentle waves make this a wonderful beach for children, other novice swimmers or paddle boarders. Free parking. Dogs must be leashed.

Very nice great view and it has a good walking area and play area these photos are from around the area
