About Orpheus Bay

This modest, south-facing stretch of sand is not far from the mouth of the Manakau Harbour. Access is via the obscure Con Bryan Track, entered about half way along, on the right of the short road to the look-out, near Huia. Don't sit under the cliff at the far end (at the centre of this picture), because bits of it often fall off there...

Getting There

Orpheus Bay nude beach is located to the west of Auckland close to the town of Huia. Follow the signs for Huia Point Lookout (on Kaitarakihi Point) but park in the open parking area after going about 150m along Huia Point Lookout Road and continue on foot down the Con Bryan Track on the left hand side. The beach has dark yellow sand and is well shaded by overhanging trees. At high tide the beach has a tendency to disappear, apart from the western end.
