Forestry Beach is a long, relatively uncrowded beach on the Te Arai coast in Rodney, north of Auckland. The beach is described as one of the best in the Tomarata area, with clear water that makes it good for swimming, and as very clean. It is about 7.5 km from the centre of Tomarata.
The shoreline here has been the subject of community campaigning. The Save Te Arai group was set up in 2016 after a proposal to remove the public carpark at the end of Pacific Road, and it continues to watch developers' and Auckland Council's plans for the coast. The group's website also covers concerns about sand mining, and it notes the shorebirds that breed on the coast, including fairy terns. The beach is part of the Te Arai area that the council has brought into its management.
