Otakou plages

This is the best small beach in Dunedin, although it may require a bit of a walk unless you have a 4 wheel drive.

There are lots of enjoyable climbing routes in this area, and you won't have to worry about finding space on the walls. Occasionally, the less popular routes may have loose material and sandy holds, but overall it's a safe and fun experience.

This beach is incredibly beautiful. We visited in hopes of spotting some penguins at dusk, but instead, we only saw sea lions, which was still a pleasant experience. The road leading here is quite narrow, but it wasn't much of an issue. We sat on the rocks to the left after coming down from the parking area but didn't see any penguins. We left around 9:30 PM as it was getting quite dark.

Nous avons fait une belle promenade le long de la magnifique plage de sable blanc et avons aperçu des lions de mer. Nous avons veillé à garder nos distances et à ne pas les déranger. La randonnée jusqu'au sommet de la montagne a été difficile en raison du chemin escarpé et du sable fin qui pénétrait dans nos chaussures. Les chaussures imperméables se sont certainement avérées utiles.

Cette plage est un excellent endroit pour observer la faune.

Stunning white sandy beach. Took a stroll with my 3-year-old while my husband carried our 1-year-old. We even spotted a mother sea lion with her baby.
