90-Mile Beach, as its name would imply, is among the largest beaches in New Zealand. This large stretch of beach offers visitors opportunities to take part in a wide variety of outdoor activities. Visitors who want to travel the whole length of the beach can charter tour buses or challenge themselves to hike along the coast. 

Traveling along the beach can be treacherous, so visitors should plan accordingly. The beach offers access to the ocean and is perfect for surfing or fishing. On land, visitors can bodyboard down the many dunes as an alternative to surfing. Children and adults alike can have fun spending the day digging for the native shellfish to eat later.


Shipwreck Bay
