Waikouaiti Beach

Reviewed By 40beckye - Dunedin, New Zealand

Love love love this beach. It’s an awesome place to take your furry friend for a nice stroll. The beach is really long (walk all the way to entrance to Karitane estuary) so you can take a long walk should you so wish. Beautiful outlook towards Karitane near the south of the beach. Often horses training on the beach so make sure you have a lead for your dog just in case. Surf is usually pretty gentle so can swim safely (while not patrolled). Family friendly!

Very informative interesting walk. You can chose to also do few different walks to suit different fitness levels. The restored remains of the village settlement were full of history and gave us a feel of what it looked like back in the day. I'd recommend to do this walk when in Arrowtown

4. Moeraki Millennium Walkway
