Princess Bay , Wellington Overview

Princess bay is one of the two suburbs of Wellington’s South Coast, New Zealand. It lies in between Houghton Bay’s headland and Te Raekaihau Point. This sandy beach offers a great view of Taputeranga Island and the peak of Kaikoura Range on a clear sunny day. Being a part of Taputeranga Marine Reserve, it strongly believes in protecting marine creatures and increasing the number of fish on the beach.

One can enjoy swimming and short walks on the beach. It is a favourite among locals for surfing. Visitors aren’t allowed to get their dogs on this beach but can take the dogs to the neighbouring beach, Houghton Bay.
