Auckland's West Coast beaches closed
Auckland Emergency Services are asking people to stay away from West Coast beach communities which are trying to recover from last week’s storm.
What you need to know:
- The affected beaches are Piha, Karekare, Bethells, Muriwai, Huia and Little Huia
- The beaches have been closed to non-residents only
- The closures are for safety and to ensure road repairs can take place
“While there is road access into Piha, it’s limited and we’re asking people not to go to Piha to go surfing or picnicking, I know we may have a fine weekend coming up but to stay away out of respect for those communities,” Duty controller Mace Ward says.
If you are wanting to check swimming conditions in other areas of Auckland, check the SwimSafe site.
