Don’t miss the chance to walk up Lion Rock, located in the middle of the beach, for stunning views and amazing photo opportunities.
After soaking in the natural beauty and enjoying the activities at Piha Beach, we begin our return journey to Auckland CBD, ensuring you are dropped off at your accommodation.
