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.

Ambie corporation, a Sony spin-off joint venture, set its sights on creating “earcuffs” that could transform how users experienced day-to-day life. Design played a vital role in adopting a user-oriented stance and making that vision a reality.
Headphones go over your ears, virtually shutting out ambient noise. When you use earbuds, also, it’s hard to hear anything besides your tunes. Now, imagine getting a personal music experience without actually putting anything over or in your ears. That’s the unprecedented experience at the heart of “ambie sound earcuffs,” which let users add a musical accompaniment to their day-to-day activities—and still hear the people and things around them.
