Send West Auckland Photo E-cards To Friends
Send e-greetings with beach photos showing your favourite beach or beach activity on West Auckland's wide-ranging coastline.
Auckland is at the narrowest part on the North Island. The Waitemata Harbour carves into the land from the east coast and the Manukau Harbour from the west. Both of them are very tidal. Nonetheless this leaves Auckland effectively surrounded by water.
The main difference between the whitish eastern sand beaches and black iron sand beaches at the west coast is their temperament of surf. The surf in the east is generally calmer than the one of the wild west coast.
A difference that gives Auckland the hub quality for a wide range on beach activities. Shared are beach games like frisbee, ball, sand castle building, beach walking, and skim boarding etc. While the vivacious coasts of the Tasman Sea in the west sees surfers, body boarders, blow carters the coasts of the Hauraki Gulf in the east invites to kite surfing, sailing, and fishing of the boat, kayaking and swimming in the safety of calm water.
Around the city beaches street cafes fringe the beach inviting passers by to laze in the sun with an ice or coffee.
