4.5/5
Super spot: the view was stunning.
Toilets are open all night (and with lights!), and clean.
The only thing is you don't have a rubbish bin, but that's manageable.

Fantastic spot close to Omokoroa ferry, shops, cafes, cycle trail and estuary.
Except for the odd distant train rumble this is another paradiso spot. Thanks to the district council. Gates closed at night.

Another great spot in Omokoroa - walkways along the waters edge in both directions.
Not quite uninterrupted water views but pretty close. Quieter and more private than down the road at the domain
