This period is great for enjoying the peninsula's many beaches, such as Ōrewa Beach or Shakespear Regional Park, where you can swim, sunbathe, or try water sports. Families will find this time particularly suitable for a relaxed beach holiday, with ample opportunities for children to play outdoors.Alternatively, the shoulder seasons of spring (September to November) and autumn (March to May) also offer pleasant conditions. Temperatures are milder, ranging from 15-20°C (59-68°F), and there are fewer crowds.
