Learn more about Makara Beach

Rugged coastal beauty awaits at Makara Beach where you can hike the windswept cliff trails for spectacular Cook Strait views. Bring your fishing gear to cast from the rocky shoreline or watch local surfers tackle the challenging waves.

It was a bit windy on this beautiful walk but I guess that's why they built the wind turbines here. Beautiful area
