Titahi Bay Tides
A crescent of golden sand on Wellington's west coast, Titahi Bay offers a sheltered alternative to the capital's exposed south coast beaches. Its tides are influenced by the Porirua Harbour entrance, creating a gentle rhythm that makes it a favourite for kayakers, paddleboarders, and families.
