Takapuna Overview

Nestled on Auckland's North Shore, Takapuna is a cozy yet capricious beach within the city bounds. Its northern extremity hosts Taka Reef, regarded as the pinnacle of New Zealand's surf spots, boasting a barreling break that favors mid to high tides. The beach itself offers decent conditions and is a friendly spot for young surfers during swells. Moving northward, one encounters a series of reef breaks including O'Neills, Milford, and Long Bay. *opinions may vary
