Hello there!
A mate & me planned a day trip to Te Arai.
The first stop on our way was Mangawhai. Beautiful little place to retire. Even if I'm only 22 years old, I actually though about moving there for a second.
Te Arai Beach:
It's surreal. I basically live next to Auckland, you have a couple of beaches, mostly seeing people walk up and down, you are never alone. Te Arai Beach, a complete other story.
Silence. You can only the sounds of the waves. Definitely one of my best days in New Zealand so far.

If you have the time for a day trip, make sure you get Te Arai on your list. I have never seen something as beautiful as this. I'm 100% sure.
That's it from me! Have a good evening!
