This is the only way to get the most out of your visit to the wild Piha beach! Meet our group at The Pantry Cafe on Auckland's Viaduct basin. Grab your coffee/breakfast before we embark on our Piha Expedition. Relax in our luxurious Mercedes Sprinter van as we wind our way through the ranges towards the famous Piha. Stopping at some of the most scenic and high altitude lookouts Auckland has to offer. Upon arrival at Piha, we venture onto the wild black sand beach at the North and South ends to explore the landscapes. We walk among the towering cliffs to find hidden tracks and lookouts through the native forest. We will see native wildlife such as the Tui's and watch the colourful Rosellas in the forest. If we are lucky we will spot a Seal or Sea Lion! Professionally guided by your passionate, qualified and safety conscious tour guide.
