Head there in the late afternoon when the shadows from the pohutakawa trees provide perfect photo opportunities.

There's nothing more inviting than a trip to Auckland's tropical paradise of Waiheke Island when the sun is glistening over the Hauraki Gulf. Jump the ferry and in just over 30 minutes, you can be swimming (or even wallowing) in the calm, crystal clear water of Oneroa Bay. One of Waiheke Island's Top Three most beautiful beaches, it's a quintessentially picturesque New Zealand bay, known for it's golden sand and safe, family friendly waters. Soak, relax and unwind - this is what summer is made of!
This beach is really close to the main shopping area on Waiheke. You could also walk here from the ferry terminal if you were feeling energetic. It has the usual white sand we love and expect on this side of Waiheke and is pretty kid-friendly. Being close to the shops, it's also really handy if you want to grab a snack during your beach day or finish up with a coffee or ice cream.
