The Foveaux Strait Coast in New Zealand consists of three bays - Te Waewae Bay, Oreti Beach and Toestoes Bay. Oreti Beach lies right in the centre of this coast. It is a twenty-six kilometres long stretch of land which is smooth enough for practising and enjoying activities like motorbiking. Burt Munro, a famous motorbiker from New Zealand, used this clear, expansive beach stretch to test and practice his Indian motorbiking and set a new world record in motorbiking.
Oreti Beach wholeheartedly welcomes adventure lovers to satiate their adrenalin rush. Towards the Southern end of Oreti Beach is a point known as Sandy Point. This point is excellent for strolling, mountain biking and horse riding. Oreti Beach also served as a location for the flick “The World’s Fastest Indian.” Oreti Beach is renowned as the coastal highway and one of the few beaches in New Zealand where you are allowed to drive Vehicles. The beach camouflages itself into a playground for kids where they thoroughly enjoy making castles and playing volleyball and hopscotch. There is a dune forest where one can find the rare Totara and Matai. Amongst the native ones, rimu, miro and kahikatea grow here. The forest walks reveal the beauty of the beach in ways more than one.
