Looking for a beach in Auckland where I can take pictures of my bike

[xa33]

Hi, everyone. I live in South Auckland and I'm looking for a beach where has less people and allowed to park my bike on it. I've been to Mission Bay but that place has so many people all the time. Any suggestions?

try near the sea, I think that's where they keep the beaches now.

Don't forget the sunblock.

Riding or driving on beaches in Auckland is not allowed, with the exception of Muriwai and Kariotahi beaches, but you need a permit for those two. https://www.aucklandcouncil.govt.nz/licences-regulations/driving-on-beaches/Pages/default.aspx. If you want a beach you can ride on without a permit, try Baylys Beach just west of Dargaville.

I always thought this was a NZ commercial.

Go at a different time, maybe?

There's a big pile of sand at Bunnings.

Go during the week at lunchtime. Good lighting at that time of day as well.

Mid day sun is usually the worst form of lighting for photography.

Try ladies Bay. it's the last beach on the water front, just a couple of km's past St Heliers.

i've heard that there's a red tide up there at the moment, i had a girfriend once who sadi if the red tide was in I could try 'browns bay' so that might be the go for you?

Find one with pollution warning signs up - then you won't have lots of people in the background ..
