A small harbour spot at Hilders Park on Beach Haven Road in Beach Haven, Auckland, which is used for open water swimming, surfing, paddling and other recreation. It is the place to check water quality, water conditions, weather and events for those activities. The beach is small, and there are tables and benches, some in the shade, placed around the site.
Reviewers mention the picnics, the barbecue spots and the sunset view most often. They say the spot is tucked away but a little exposed to the wind. One reviewer says the views across to Fabric Bay, Scotts Landing and the distant Waitakere Ranges are lovely, and that you can watch the tide turn and the boats move. Another reviewer found the council barbecues were not working on their visit, and suspects that is why they are kept so clean. The spot is described as nice for an evening out.
