Just east of New Plymouth. Rigging up gear is possible on the grass areas behind the dunes.

Be careful with the beach crowd and surfers! It's a great place for people to go have a nice "after work" session. Not far from town!

Nearest is in New Plymouth. Typical small town night life; plenty of restaurants to choose from; few busy bars.
