In spite of some sea debris, we found Awaroa to be a very lovely and appealing beach, with soft sand and lots of shells. The grassy embankment gave it the feeling of having sand dunes, and the very calm and clear water was like a lake. The whole scene was framed by the hills and mountains of the national park.
Below are a few photos of Awaroa Beach; click to enlarge/scroll.
It was really a special place, and I was so glad we’d returned. A wood ramp angled up to the start of a path that led to an eco resort, but out here on the beach it felt very much like being away from it all. –Cyndi
