Long Bay

Auckland

Long Bay certainly lives up to its name. This seaside reserve includes a kilometre-long sandy beach that gentle slopes down to the waters of a coastal marine reserve.
Long Bay certainly lives up to its name. This seaside reserve includes a kilometre-long sandy beach that gentle slopes down to the waters of a coastal marine reserve.
Long Bay is located at the northern end of the East Coast Bays on Auckland's North Shore.
Flanked by green hillsides and trees, Long Bay's stunning stretch of golden sand offers fun and relaxation for the whole family. Spread a blanket for a picnic, or spread out in the sun. It's safe for swimming and with plenty of room to throw a ball, fly a kite, or build a mega sandcastle the children will love it too.

Long Bay Beach - The coastline is occupied by the Long Bay Regional Park, and the shoreline is in Long Bay-Okura Marine Reserve, which opened in 1995. The beach is sandy and swimming is safe. It offers forest walks and scenic cliffs. This beach has low tide water. Smaller beaches to the north, accessible except at high tide, are used by nudists.

9/10 Wonderful! (2,009 reviews)
Large, clean room with good facilities. Handy location near to CBD - about 10 min walk to downtown. Most meal and bar outlets are not in main building but across a small adjoining lane way which wasn't explained and I didn't discover until breakfast. So dinner was somewhere else. Overall, good value ...

8.6/10 Excellent! (1,003 reviews)
The rooms are old/dated with insufficient lighting & paper-thin doors. I think that the cleaning staff do as well as they can with their horribly noisy, ancient carts. The air exchange vent was disgusting. The elevators are on their last leg/cable. Lastly, the staff at the "bar" & hostess for the ...
