About Auckland Surf Travel
Piha:
What we’ve got here, baby, are two black sand beaches separate by a giant hunk of earth called Lion Rock. Spectacular is barely the word. It’ll take your breath away the first time you rock up and stand there on the cliff looking down. Surf-wise, there’s a good left at the south end, lefts and right-hand double ups off Lion Rock and peaks to the north.
Bogan River:
Oooweee, a world-class rivermouth peak dominated by locals. How good are you? Hollow and powerful, it will test your skill levels. Drive to Muriwai beach, a 30-minute drive west of Auckland, and turn right (I’m assuming you’ve got yourself a sweet four-wheel-drive here).
