Best Family Beach in Northland

Taupo Bay's sheltered cove and calm, safe swimming make it Northland's ideal family beach destination — a pohutukawa-shaded retreat where children can play freely in gentle waters while parents relax on golden sand.

Taupo Bay

Tucked beside the Whangaroa Harbour road, Taupo Bay is a compact, pohutukawa-fringed cove that shelters swimmers from open-ocean swells. The golden sand beach slopes gently, making it safe for young children, and the adjacent holiday park provides camping, cabins, a playground, and easy facilities for families. A local surf school operates in summer, and the bay's warm, sheltered water is ideal for paddling and kayaking.
