Omana Regional Park Hauraki Gulf Auckland 30/31 October 2010

Beautiful ARC camping area right above the sea.  The keep fit routine continues with a walk before dinner exploring the surroundings.  Next morning set off on our bikes to an adjoining reserve, quite hilly in places.  Discovered that it's possible to walk or cycle on it as far as Beachlands.  Afternoon did the perimeter walk through lovely bush.  Next morning Bevan & the children arrived.  Picnic lunch then bush walk again with them.  Biked to local shops where we purchased fish & chips for dinner.  Then another walk to the other end of the beach where we realised it is possible to walk or cycle on a lovely track right around the beach to Maraetai.  I would recommend this park to anyone, either for camping or a day trip.  Lovely BBQ's everywhere, picnic tables, water, good ablution blocks, swimming, shell fish abundance, good fishing, boating, skateboard park etc.
