Long Bay - Okura Track takes you through Long Bay Regional Park, located not far from Auckland. It's a beautiful walk with spectacular coastal views and a few well-placed benches if you want to sit and enjoy the vista. A large carpark with a children's playground, public toilet, and picnic area is located at the trailhead.
