NEAR THE OCEAN

PIHA, AUCKLAND

Piha is a black iron-sand beach and one of New Zealand’s most famous surf beaches. Situated on the West Coast of the North Island, 40 kms from the city of Auckland. 

It can be moody, misty and mysterious, wild, wet and wind-swept. The power goes off, the phone lines come down, sometimes the road in (and out) gets blocked. Living here is not for the faint-hearted.

Piha is not just surf and sand. With rugged cliffs and the majestic Lion Rock standing guard over the beach, the scenery is dramatic and inspiring. The beach is backed by the Waitakere Ranges, a protected parkland of sub-tropical forest, accessible through numerous bush tracks.
