Tawharanui Regional Park boasts some of the Auckland region's most beautiful white sand beaches. There are four white sandy beaches on Tawharanui’s north coast totalling 3 kilometres.

The main beach is Anchor Bay which is approximately 360 metres of white sand and is in close proximity to picnic areas. It is an easy 70 - 80 meter walk from the main car park to Anchor Bay. There are lots of tracks here, which will take you further round to smaller secluded bays for a spot of naked bathing.
