Orewa
Just twenty-five minutes north of Auckland's harbour bridge, the town of Orewa Beach spreads inland from the edge of a magnificent three kilometre beach. Orewa Beach is the commercial heart of the Hibiscus Coast and Rodney district. If you need to work in the city but want the lifestyle that the beach offers – you have come to the right place.
The beach extends along the length of the town, providing a broad sandy promenade at low tide. Extensive grassy reserves and a children's playground border the beach. The town centre itself has a great variety of shops and services, restaurants, banks, supermarkets, dairies and accommodation. 
It's a great destination if you like swimming, surfing, kayaking, windsurfing and kite surfing. For coastal views, you can't beat a stroll along the Millennium Walkway.

Beyond the beach, entertainment possibilities include golf at Gulf Harbour, wine trails, hiking in regional parks, ten pin bowling, cycling, mini golf, cinema, horse riding, go-carting, indoor skiing and thermal hot pools of Waiwera. |
Orewa Beach is conveniently located along State Highway 1 which passes through the centre of town, allowing a commute back to Auckland CBD or the rapidly growing business districts on the North Shore.
