Reviews of Mangawhai Heads Beach

Á. M.

Must to visit. Amazing crystal clear water long beach. Beautiful stunning view

B. W.

We spent a moonlit night on the beach it was both peaceful and exhilarating reminded me a little of the original Jaws movie lol.. I didn't go swimming but loved every minute there

M. E.

The scenery will blow your mind. The mint coloured waves, rocks all over the beach and decent walk when tide not high. Beautiful! And dog friendly. Sand dunes for sliding down on boards. Ice cream and coffee available near the toilets and changing rooms.

P. R.

Beautiful beach proud to call it my local. Alway enjoy walking the length and back.

M. P.

Absolutely beautiful beach that we enjoyed every day during our stay in the Manghawai area! It’s wide and sandy, and great for walking, relaxing, sunning, surfing, or swimming. Also seems to be popular with local fishermen. There is a large parking area at the beach with benches, restrooms, changing rooms and showers. There are dunes behind the beach, and further down the beach there is a beautiful Cliffs Walkway with trails to walk on for amazing panoramic views. On the far north end of the beach, you will find the Natural Arch. We particularly enjoyed walking down the beach on multiple occasions to the access trail for the Manghawai Heads Cliffs walkway, which is directly accessible from the beach. Amazing scenery and a place that we will revisit again when we return to New Zealand!

H. B.

One of the best headland beaches we've found... Beautiful vistas, great carparking, surfing for all levels, new toilets a shower, sunrises and wonderful for family walks and dogs to play on the beach too... Only suggestion to some dog owners, pick up your dog's poo!!

D. S.

A very nice and beautiful beach. The cliffs meet the ocean to create amazing scenery. There is a walking track up on the cliffs that gives you amazing views of the beach and surrounding area. Only takes about 2 hours to walk the whole thing. The car park can get very full on a busy day, so arriving early is a good idea.

P. H. (.

An amazing beach with crystal clear water, beautiful scenic, white sand. It is suitable for sunbathing, swimming, surfing and tracking. It is not very far from Auckland Center, takes about 2 hour driving. There is a clean toilet, car park on the site. For those who want to learn surfing can contact to book the training, they offer both private and group course. I really love this beach, would like to come back soon.

F. O.

amazing place! The sun, sea and sand, my son just loves it.he even asked to come back the next day 😂 we had a great time.. there are life guards on patrol..toilets are clean and we don’t have problems on parking though it was a Saturday 😁 Definitely we will come back again soon..

V. R.

A good beach to spend your day.

P. T.

Beautiful beach and can have good surf. Leave early to get here before the traffic as it can get pretty busy. The cliff top walk is worth the effort for the views and the walk back along the beach. Just check the tides.

K. W.

Easily my favourite beach in New Zealand! The water was warm and clear, the sand is soft and nice, there are toilet and changing facilities and stunning views of the heads. I love this beach and really enjoyed myself. The only con is finding a parking space can be a chore during summer but with some perseverance you can find a spot if you time your visit right. Love this place!

E. P.

Absolutely stunning NZ beach. Beautiful white sand and great surf!! Beautiful walk around the cliff top, return via beach at low tide. Great for photography enthusiasts :)

R. L.

spectacular views and good short day hike. if you’re lucky, you might catch the coffee and ice cream stall by the parking. lots of parking space and toilets. If you walk by on the left side facing the shore you can get to the sandy place where you can actually see a little sad hill where children do some sand boarding. There is also a surfing school that visit the place and if you’re near there, you can try an hour surf lessons from the local trainers. Catch the way, enjoy the sun!

J. L.

Had to come back so beautiful and relaxing water clear and beach safe ...nice views from top of the large hill easy to walk on top to get nice pictures if you have no time for cliff walk :)

C. B. d. L.

Clear water, sand dunes small polls for the kids by the rocks, just amazing! It feels like a proper beach. To me it looks like a mixture of Piha Beach and Anchor Bay in Tawharanui Peninsula.

J. L.

If you are planning to have some experience surfing.. This is your beach.. There not big wave 🌊 but the water is so clear and the wave are good enough for having a good time!

R. M.

Beautiful beaches. Awesome waves to swim in at the Heads. And a nice soak I'm the channel down by the camping while collecting cockles.

Mangawhai Heads Beach is very busy during the day in the summertime, so the carparks are hard to find because the beach is amazing and it has great toilet and changing room facilities with a shower on the outside to get that pesky sand off lol The Beach is patrolled during busy times, so remember to swim between the flags for your safety. Overall, one of the best beaches in NZ.

G. R.

Did the beach walk and hike with my girlfriend it was bit fun not the coming back time as we choose not to go back thru track and took natural path and made our way through beach Beautiful place lovely atmosphere Remember to take water with you always and snack bar and people who are not brown like me don’t forget the 🌞🌞🌞🌞🌞sunscreen 🌞🌞🌞🌞🌞🌞 plan it safe As my girlfriend was way burned by the end of the hike but she is fine Be safe and enjoy beautiful northland views And pls don’t throw rubbish be responsible

R. M.

Great walking track. Be advised depending on tide you'll need to go knee height into water to access the coast to get back to the beginning of the track. Most ascending is done at the beginning. Quite a lot of annoying rocks that slip & slip along the coast line. Walking or hiking shoes are recommended, especially for this part. Beautiful scenery along the way for great pictures, as well as less busier spots along the beach for swimming away from the crowds. Quite a decent walk, good for trail running along the tracked part prior to the coastal walk along the bottom. I wouldn't attempt it without good shoes, otherwise its a recipe for disaster and you can break your ankle. Recommend! Definitely do it again.

K. D.

Big waves, really soft sand except the water is quite salty and beware of when the tsunami sirens go off. I got caught in a rip current but got out safely fortunately.

A. M.

Mangawhai Heads Beach is a popular swimming beach in the summer, there are toilets and cold showers. Very nice place.

W. L.

Stunning walk with nice hard sand for walking on. Beautiful shells all along the beach and great views of island in the distance. Perfect beach for walking.

J. B.

What an awesome beach. Dog friendly is a bonus. Grab some shade and pack the chilly bin. Awesome spot to just soak it all up

D. M. C.

One of my favourite spots in northland, white sand beach blue water. Lots of surfing going on here, there’s even a surfing school. But even if you are not into surfing or swimming, the view itself it’s stoning

L. B.

Such a stunning beach with gorgeous uninterrupted views! Plenty of sandy dunes to climb, and the waves can be great for surfing. There is quite a rip in the water at times with life guards active in summer months.

M. H.

Beautiful beach, good parking excellent toilets, a credit to kaipara Council.

P. B.

Had a lovely walk along the beach after a hearty full English Saturday morning breakfast. Should have brought my costume and gone for a swim. Mother lied, you can swim after a meal, no you won't drown, unless you can't swim that is, then you drown!

Pretty beach. Enjoyable walk. Has plenty parking. Jetty. Sand dune. Clear water. Public restroom/washroom.

T. S. A.

such a good and beautiful beach. i recommend you strongly to check the low tide time.

L. N.

One of my favourite beaches in the whole of NZ. Quite wild so not really for young kids (it's a surf beach) but the waves are so much fun and the sand is fine and yellow. Changing rooms are clean and there a coffee and frozen yoghurt cart by the car park. There is a small pool of sorts formed in the sand for toddlers and babies to splash is once the tide recedes but it's very shallow and ends up being more of a puddle. Lots of space on the beach and there's a massive sand dune to play on.

B. T.

Lovely beach with good waves. Crystal clear waters. The changing rooms are new as well.

A. N.

What a beautiful spot...only 1.5 hours from Auckland..nice clear water.

R. M.

This is a stunning beach one of the best in new zealand based on what I have seen. Good 90 min drive from auckland.

B. I.

Awesome beach to visit for a surf or swim or walk. More parking available now

Z. N.

Stunning beach with nice waves! But male and female toilets are shared!

M. S.

Just beautiful. A great place for a beach walk. Head north along the beach from the river mouth and enjoy the views. Little coves with a pretty backdrop. Some rocky and pebble areas, in other places white, black or yellow sand. Some great rocks too. Also plenty of bird life. Good toilet facilities by carpark.

J. P.

White sandy surfing Beach and the water is mostly calm for swimming.

S. M.

Awesome Beach, make the effort and walk down to the far end and up and over the hill, well worth it.

P. D.

Beautiful beach with an amazing coastal walk!

S. P.

Excellent as always..... Choppy surf but still really good fun. 😎

G. C.

Amazing beach, especially at sunrise. Nice wee chilled out town.

S. M.

Fantastic beach, plenty of lifeguards, felt very safe. Good toilets and changing room facilities.

Very nice and clean Beach. With white sand looks beautiful in sunny Day's..

S. M.

Fantastic beach

E. C.

Nice walk to the top of the hill and great beach for surfing.

V. A.

Good surf beach with plenty of stay and dining options

D. L.

Lovely spot. A local classic must see

w. g.

great beach heaps of cool little spots to hang out and enjoy the view

K. T. t. i.

Lifeguards at the heads 100% Excellent Services. Thanks so much for making our first time day out there a safe one ☺️

Another awesome surf beach. Sand dunes for tobogganing.

E. a. D.

Loved it Stunning views. Even Dolphins playing in the surf

One of the best beaches in the area.

Must visit NZ Beach. You will love it.

S. G.

Beautiful beach, the cliffs walkway was awesome

C. E.

Another beautiful slice of NZ Paradise. Safe swimming, awesome Cliff walk. Outdoor showers and decent changing room & toilet building.

M. P.

Went here for a beach walk Sunday 14/04/19. Loved the big white rock at the entry/parking area, great that there are public toilets available. Walked a few kms down the beach and loved the views. My only concern is the plastic and metal barriers/fencing placed for a previous cliff rock slide look like they will be out polluting the sea the next time a storm comes by.

M. H. (. F.

Beautiful beach. You can do a lot here!

Beautiful, nice, very good showers, changing rooms, toilets, parking, space for eating - when we went there there were people selling ice cream, coffee and beer - life safe guards. The beautiful white sand dunes are worth it a slide so you can use your body board for both water and sand 😊 also there is a track going from the carpark to the beach over the sand dunes.

K. V.

Breathtaking! Beach is beautiful.

Beautiful white sandy beach with great views. We went at a time when there weren't many visitors which made our time there extra enjoyable. There wasn't a large number of parking spaces so that could be an issue during peak times.

T. H.

Lovely beach. The Mangawhai Heads coastal walk is stunning.

J. T.

Climbed up the Cliff Walkway from the beach so got awesome views. On this day in winter, the weather was wild so the surf was roaring. Nice rock formations to explore and photograph.

What a great stretch of gorgeous beach line and pristine clean beaches. Lifeguards on duty busy doing Training with the young ones and teaching then the necessary skills to help with the rescue efforts. Great swimming areas, people busy sunbathing and adjacent area a great place to launch your boats and enjoy time on the water. Great days weather and good to see so many people taking full advantage and swimming, sun bathing and out on different boards. Sat at one of the memorial benches and was able to chill out and enjoy the breathtaking views. Clean outdoor amenities and definitely an area to visit more often.

J. T.

Beautiful coastline, perfect for sunrise views. Massive rocks and big hills make for picturesque scenery. The low tide also has a wide reflection. The city council has done a great job with access to the beach and plenty of carpark spaces. Definitely worth a bucket list on your Northland travels.

S. R.

Beautiful long beach. There are lifeguards on site, a cliff walk with beautiful views. Sand dunes on one side of the beach where you can do sand surfing. A small cart selling coffee to warm you up and ice cream to cool you down. A must visit beach in Northland.

A. T.

Beautiful beach and surroundings. The car park doesn't seem to have enough parking places, especially on a public holiday or a weekend, but the parking is still manageable, if you're patient or don't mind walking a bit. The locals are friendly. Very nice, lovable little place. Will definitely go back in the future. :)

D. L.

Such a stunning beach.

G. S.

Gorgeous views from the top of the hill (access from the parking), a very beautiful sight, should take about 10-15 mins to climb. The beach is nice, but I wouldn't say that it's anything spectacular. Decent number of carparks available, but it can get very crowded during the summer.

S. T.

Beautiful peice of New Zealand coastline

R. B.

This was my second trip. Love the place, long walk from beach to top of hill was little bit tiring as sun was too strong. Never go for walk without water . Sun set is lovely sky was full of different colours. And we were lucky that sky was clear and we sat under the stars for hours

Enjoyed walking on the beach and watching the waves

B. H.

Great place for a small/big walk along the beach. Looking out to offshore islands. Awesome walk up along the hills overlooking the beach and ocean. Stunning views

A. C.

My favourite beach. Always swimmable with crystal clear water and soft sand. The are plenty of options for sheltered sunbathing. The Clifftop Walkway has to be one of the most scenic in New Zealand and takes only 2 and a bit hours.

K. F.

10/10 NZ east coast beach. Stayed too long in the sun now I'm red as a lobster. Worth it.

S. C.

Beach is 10/10. Great for walking, relaxing, swimming and surfing. HOWEVER, parking is a real pain in weekends over the summer period. Council have limited parking spaces and will tow/fine if you park on the endless yellow lines....

M. B.

One of the best beaches on the North Island. Hard to find a park when busy but worth it. Water was beautiful.

A. C. (.

Another amazing beach to visit if you are around the area. Also for a great cliff walk which is two hours and can only be done when low tide if you wanna get the full experience. So make sure to check the tides before you visit. Well worth and must do

n. m.

Excellent facilities with sweet little personal touches and attention to detail. Gorgeous chalets located close to the shops, beach and restaurants. Quiet well maintained gardens perfect for relaxing in. Friendly hosts that are welcoming, accomodating and eager to please.

D. M.

A well regarded and beautiful beach. Keep in mind dogs have to be on leash for quite a distance. Decent amount of parking nearby

C. M.

Great surf Beach, nice little estuary just behind it, soft white sand. Parking can be difficult through the holiday period but we'll worth the visit. Recommended

Great views and Clean Toilets

S. R.

Simply amazing beach, nice shower and changing facilities also good picnic spots . Nice walks around the beach

F. B.

Not too many people, lifeguards working, ice creams and coffee available in carts in the carpark, good toilet and changing facilities. Apart from nature throwing a shark 🦈 on the water, it was perfect. The eagle eyed lifeguards spotted it quickly and got everyone out of the water asap.. One had to paddle out into the water to collect a man doing laps on his board... Very brave.

L. G.

Great beach with lifeguards, toilet, shower and changing room. If you walk all the way to the end of the beach there is an awesome walking trail worth your spending sometime. Make sure you watch the tide thought, as the beach part isn’t accessible at high tide. Bring a great snack and you are in for some hygge-time on top of the trail! #LetsGuide #HyggeSpot

B. G.

Most beautiful beach in NZ

R. C.

Great for surfing and walking your dog. BTW the rubbish bins are to the right of the toilet block. A local lady told me when I asked where there was a bin to put the dog poo bag in - she said "Mangawhai does not have rubbish bins!"

Love this place, totally awesome! A perfect place for the family to enjoy summer :) beautiful white sand, sand dunes, and convenient parking area. One of my favourites!

L. T.

Couldn't be better. Sun sand and surf. Lots of space and walks to do. Facilities nearby. Driving distance from Auckland and Whangarei. Great accommodation close by. Rock pools and nature for conservation enthusiasts

Great beach. We did the Mangawhai Cliff walk and it was beautiful and we loved the view. Sand dunes are awesome too. Love the large rock too.

T. P. H.

Rainy day, still stunning !

R. P.

White sandy beach with georgeous views. No shelter on the beach. Sand gets extremely hot. But lovely place. People were out surfing.

D. G. (.

4. c.

A very nice place with walks and a beautiful beach. This is not a busy place. It's ok for bodyboard and surf. The water is just beautiful.

L. J.

Our favourite white sand beach. Crystal clear waters and relatively safe for swimming but always swim between the flags

C. A.

The beach is fantastic very popular with surfers and swimmers, thats why parking is shocking, so go early to score a park or give bach owner an easy $5 to park on their property that has signage.

D. S.

Beautiful ,on one side a surf beach then there is the bar that takes boats up the estuary ,and on which is the stunning.picnic bay with its calm water .
