Location
|
|
A quiet beach tucked away in Huruhi Bay, on the fringe of Oneroa
village, Wild Bay is named after “Koao Creek”, the
original spring running through the secluded valley into the bay.
Discretely separated from the bustle of the village and tourist
crowds, it is renowned for sheltered moorings, tranquil beach
walks, fishing from the rocks and solitude. The experience of
remoteness is combined with instant access to the many attractions
of Waiheke Island and the wider Hauraki Gulf.
Arrive at Wild Bay directly by boat on to the private beach from
anchorages close to shore. Or a winding rural drive a few minutes
from passenger and car ferries, through vineyards, farm land and
bush from Church Bay Road, one of New Zealand’s most sought-after
coastal life-style locations. Or helicopter from Auckland directly
to adjacent vineyards and restaurants. Or a quiet and easy beach
walk from Oneroa village.
