Te Wharau Beach is a remote coastal beach located south of the Waiapu River mouth on the East Coast of New Zealand's North Island. The beach is part of an outstanding natural landscape characterized by dramatic sea cliffs and active landslide areas on the surrounding hill country, which is used for grazing. Access is via Te Wharau Beach Road, a no-exit road that leads directly to the shore, providing anglers with a straightforward route to the surf. The coastline here is rugged and beautiful, with remote beaches extending for miles south of the bluff, offering a sense of isolation and a classic New Zealand surf fishing environment.
