4WD track in the Hawke's Bay region
Waimārama Beach is an easy sand run on the Hawke's Bay coast southeast of Hastings, with open coastal views and a seasonal closure to the south.
An easy run along the sand. Generally you'll want to head north along the beach, with open coastal views and the surf rolling in. It's short and relaxed, a good one for a casual day out.
The sand can get quite soft, so airing down and keeping it in 4WD makes for a smoother trip. As with any beach driving, watch the tides and conditions, and stick to the firmer sand where you can.
There's a vehicle closure to the south that runs from October to April to protect the area over the busier season, so check the signs before you head off.
