Food scene

My personal favourite – Walnut Cottage, with excellent yummy food and surroundings, breakfast and brunch/lunch. Can't recommend this highly enough! Lots of parking, and safe for little kids to play, with outdoor seating when it's warm enough. There's even ducks to feed, and across the road from the northern end of Orewa beach, to walk off the yummy fare.

Sightseeing

Visiting Wenderholm is a must, for a sheltered (usually) lovely white sand beach, with walks. There's always somewhere shady to park and rest up and read, if that's your thing too.

Muriwai is always worthy of a picnic; black sand beach that literally goes for miles, golf course, cafes, horse-riding in this location. If you're hiking, there is a waterfall you can get to.

Magnificent picnic spot, glorious views and many walking tracks. This is protected and the pukekos are enormous! Perfect family outing - you can even collect cockles on the safe beach, that is very shallow.
