This historic beachside suburb is a traditional fishing hub, located on the south coast of Wellington.
To the east, you’ll find the small but perfectly formed Scorching Bay.
Lyall Bay beach is Wellington’s most popular surf beach.
Across the harbour lies Days Bay and Eastbourne.
Just a few minutes walk from the city, this golden sand beach is a top spot for a bit of walking, cycling or people watching.
Drive for 20 rugged kilometres along the beach, over rocks, around the bays and headlands, with the ocean lapping the 4WD trucks.
