The day begins on a wind-swept headland where the ocean presses its blue edge against layered sandstone and scrub. Guides brief the group beside low pohutukawa, then the party slips onto a short coastal track that opens onto vertical faces dropping to the Hauraki Gulf. Salt-scented air and the sound of gulls set a brisk rhythm as climbers clip in and move upward.

Check the forecast and tides
Coastal weather and high tides can close routes; confirm the operator’s weather policy and plan for wind and sudden changes.
Wear approach shoes
Sticky-soled approach shoes or light hiking shoes make the short walks and scrambling comfortable and safe.
Bring 1.5–2 L of water
Full-day climbing in sun and wind depletes fluids quickly—carry enough and sip regularly.
Protect your camera
Carry a secure wrist or chest strap—photography is great here but one slip on a ledge can cost gear.
