The beach itself seems to go for miles and miles along the magnificent Hawke's Bay. Our driver did mention that this part of the beach was not suitable for swimming because of all the rocks everywhere. With that being said, "Beach Domain " consists of more than just the beach area. Its grassy areas are ideal spots for picnics and relaxation ! There is also a bike trail that extends up the coast towards the aquarium and beyond! The trail can also be walked with plenty of benches along the way. The waterfront offers fine dining /spa treatment/playgrounds/beautiful gardens/camping parking/shopping/music events at the "Napier Soundshell" and so much more ! Napier New Zealand was one of my favorite destination on our trip ! I hope this information helps ! Enjoy ! Live/Love/Travel !

At 53 years old and 100kg I was glad to be able to enjoy the full range of fun!
