Stunning beach with views out to the Manakau heads. Dog paradise! If you're not into dogs go to Cornwallis beach just around the corner.

Best off leash dog spot in Auckland. Hands down! The dogs love the walk through the bush to the massive stream that meets the ocean. The water is warm, the people are friendly, and the dogs are plentiful. We always have the best days there. Parking is tricky when it’s busy. Wash your feets on the way in and out to protect the Kauri.

Awesome off-lead dog beach! Have been at all time of the day when the tide is both in and out and has been great everytime and offers a different experience for you and your dogs each time! Great in summer and also good to visit in winter too. There is limited parking here when the beach is busy but havent had problems parking here yet. Bit of a drive rhrough curvy roads to get there but definitely worth it!

Great place to let your dog off leash. Parking lot fills up fast on weekends.

All of my dogs have loved it here, it's my favorite beach too, been going since i can remember. So beautiful, rugged and peaceful, perfect for a whole day adventure with your pups 🐶🐾

Dog Paradise! Off-lead beach for dogs to roam, swim and play. There are always dozens of dogs here (even during the week) so make sure you're comfortable with dogs, and that your dog is social and behaves off-lead if you are considering coming. There is limited parking and is a very popular spot. Not the best beach for swimming (lots of debris and very shallow for a long while out) but good for wading and paddling with your dog.

Awesome place to walk your dog. Great fresh water stream that connects to the sea via the beach walking track has been improved greatly

Fun place for the kids and dog. Not really a picnic area like I’ve read and I saw that it says there is wheelchair access. Well I took my buggy down but it wasn’t easy in patches after the board walk. Will definitely be back but not with the buggy although the pup appreciated it after getting tired out!

A great doggo beach! Good little car park and a nice short but interesting walk to the main beach where the dogs can run. It’s nice and safe and far away from the road. A little doggo haven It also has a long drop and bins for dog bags

Great do beach. Best when tide is in, but even with it out the pups love it.

Great place. My dog loves running off leash here. He loves swimming too but hates waves as they can knock him over. This place has pretty gentle waves and is shallow for quite a while so he really enjoyed being able to play in the water. Would recommend.

Fantastic beach for any dog owner. If you haven't been, then make sure you time it for low tide.

A beautiful part of Auckland. Excellent for dogs as it's off leash. Lovely views of the Manukau harbour.

BEST doggy beach ever!!! Our dog loves it!! She can free range there, go in the water, chat with other doggies….highly recommend.

Great off leash area for dogs. Very popular, which means there are always other dogs there to interact with.

Great place for dogs to run along the beach and socialize

Awesome place to take dogs. The scenery is great too
