Tucked into the sheltered shoreline of the Otago Peninsula along Portobello Road, this harbour beach offers a calm tidal haven well protected from the open ocean swell. The shallow, gentle waters make it a natural setting for paddling, seaside walks, and exploring the shoreline, framed by coastal views across Otago Harbour.
Set right in Macandrew Bay, it serves as a central coastal gathering spot for both peninsula residents and day visitors heading out from Dunedin. It stands out as an easy harbour-side stop along the scenic coastal route, well suited for a quiet pause by the water.
