Adventure to Te Waha Point & Hidden Caves! 🌊

🌟 Explore the Laird Thomson Track for an easy, short walk with stunning views of Whites Beach and the coastline!
🏖️ A quick 20-minute walk up, 10 minutes back—perfect for a short escape!
🚫 No dogs allowed near the penguin nesting area, so be sure to leave them at home!
🕵️‍♂️ The track entrance can be tricky to find—head past the caves, then look for the hidden path behind a rock. It’s a bit of an adventure just to get started!
🌄 The views from Te Waha Point are absolutely breathtaking!
⚠️ Latest update (late 2024): The track to Te Waha Point from North Piha is currently closed due to a slip, but you can still access the lookout via Rose Track.

One reviewer summed it up perfectly: "One of my favorite West Coast walks, fantastic scenery, views to die for!" 😍
