Very strong easterlies not common. Lucky to get ideal conditions here once a month. Normally you can count the number of times per year on both hands. Easterly storm systems can occur at any time of year but aren't that common.



How to get there
Transport:
Car
Access:
Short Walk


Get directions from


From the airport take the southwestern motorway until you get to Hillsborough, and then drive along the coastal hills (get the map out for this so you know where to go) until you get to Titirangi. Then take the West Huia Rd (follow the signposting to Huia) until you get to Cornwallis (about 15km drive from Titirangi). Car definitely required as with all Auckland spots. You can also turn left before you exit to Cornwallis (Pine Av.), here you will find good parking.

Extra Information
Rules:
None


No rules but the kite scene here is very unestablished. Very few people have kited here so please respect the locals. Fortunately in the conditions you will want to come here it's not the best beach bum weather.

Nightlife
Nearest happening spot is Titirangi. Manukau and Auckland are each only 20km away.
