Short track down to Lonely Bay beach, a small but nice beach with fewer people than many beaches in the area.
Short 5-10 minute steep walk in Shakespeare Cliff Reserve from the track car park down to Lonely Bay Beach. Lots of steps. Track reasonably well maintained with a few issues on certain steps but a good track overall. Small, beautiful, less crowded beach with lots of Pohutukawa trees. Note that there are a number of tracks here in the Shakespeare Scenic Reserve including tracks to the Whitianga ferry, Cooks Beach and the Cliff overlook.
