Things to do in Karioitahi Beach
Auckland west coast Karioitahi location is around the Manukau harbour making this west coast beach a special destination, remote, wild and stunning. Karioitahi is not one of those beaches where the golden sands shimmer in the evening light. The beach is iron coloured sand. It has wind that rips words from your mouth and carries them away. It has menacing waves that crash and silent rips that wait to strike. Karioitahi is the kind of beach that tramples egos and forces you to realise that without people, the Earth would continue to revolve.
Because of these things Karioitahi has a raw, elemental coal black beauty. Castaways Resort sits atop of the cliffs of Karioitahi Beach. Luxury accommodation, the wild west coast has that on offer as well as camping sites. If a bit of pampering is what you need, you can indulge in the tranquil day spa. For a getaway guaranteed peace and quiet, no mobile cover, very few people, other than a great chef and the team of Castaways and an outdoor bath, a great weekend escape on the doorstep of Auckland.
