Takapuna Beach Boat Ramp, on The Promenade in Takapuna, is a public ramp on the North Shore's main beach, and it gives small boat owners a way to launch straight onto the Hauraki Gulf. It suits people heading out for a morning of fishing or a afternoon on the water, and it is an easy launch point for anyone living on the North Shore who does not want to trailer a boat far to reach the sea.
Our pick on the North Shore for a quick launch onto the Gulf.
