Barrier Beaches

This is Kaitoke Beach – was two minutes from the bungalow, and as you can see almost deserted. The whole island has beaches like this.

This is one of the spots we went fishing. It is Whangaparapara Harbour on the west of the island.

And this is Tryphena Harbour in the south. Tryphena is the only place where you can get voice and data cellphone coverage – and only for around 100 metres or so!

This is the north end of Medlands Beach on the East. Quite popular in summer I am told.
