Destination Orewa Beach — Attraction in Hibiscus and Bays

"Orewa Beach is a hidden gem on Auckland's North Shore! This stunning beach offers a perfect spot for swimming, sunbathing, and relaxation. The beach is incredibly clean, with pristine sand and crystal-clear waters.

One of the standout features of Orewa Beach is its safety. The beach is patrolled by lifeguards during peak season, making it an ideal spot for families with kids. The waves are gentle, and the water is calm, making it perfect for swimming.
