Doctors Point Beach |
Dunedin (and the immediate surrounding area) is home to more than fifteen beaches, identified below, with numerous opportunities to surf, swim, beachcomb, walk dogs or view wildlife. Very briefly, St Clair may be the favourite beach (most used) for surfing and viewing the ocean from the esplanade (with restaurants & coffee), especially on stormy days; Tomahawk is great for walking dogs (plus surfing); and the beaches south of Brighton go on for kilometers. Long and Allans beaches are beautiful and less used; and all of the beaches have distinctively different sea shells. Dr.'s Point and Aramoana are particularly great for hunting shells. Most beaches provide easy access (i.e., many within minutes from downtown Dunedin), but Tunnel and Sandfly require some effort.
I've seen seal, sea lion and penguin on numerous beaches.
