Te Henga/Bethells Beach – Wild, Dramatic, Unforgettable
Experience the raw beauty of Auckland’s West Coast at Te Henga (Bethells Beach), one of the region’s most dramatic and culturally significant landscapes. With its sweeping black sand shoreline, powerful Tasman Sea swells, and towering cliffs, Te Henga captures the untamed spirit of Aotearoa.
Rather than rushing through multiple stops, we take time to truly connect with this extraordinary place. Enjoy scenic lookouts, optional short walks, and rich storytelling that brings the landscape to life — from its geological origins to its deep cultural and local significance.
With complimentary refreshments enjoyed in a stunning coastal or bush setting, this is more than just a beach visit — it’s a moment to slow down, breathe deeply, and experience the wild west the way locals do.
Experience finest local Breweries and Wineries
After exploring the coast, we continue the journey with hosted visits to some of West Auckland’s finest independent breweries and boutique wineries, including Hallertau ( https://hallertau.co.nz ), Kumeu River Wines ( https://kumeuriver.co.nz/ ).
What makes this experience special is our personal connection with the people behind the venues. These aren’t tourist-only stops — they’re local favourites, where you’re welcomed with genuine hospitality and insider stories about the craft, the land, and the passion behind each pour.
At Hallertau, guests can also enjoy delicious food alongside their drinks, making it the perfect spot to relax and refuel. Across all stops, you can choose wine tastings, craft beer paddles, or a laid-back drink in beautiful surroundings.
With unhurried time to socialise and soak up the atmosphere, this part of the tour perfectly complements the rugged coastal morning — refined yet relaxed, authentic and distinctly West Auckland
