Safe beach for practice

Posted on 07/11/2009 at 18:54

Hi, I'm new to ocean swimming and live in Te Awamutu. I've signed up for the Paihia 750m and am wondering what beach is safe, and not too far away that would be good for me to practice in the ocean. Thanks

Wouldn't Raglan be closer? Although it's still miles away. Any rivers round your way?

Hey mate...wouldn't Waihi / The Mount be your best bet. Tough call when you couldn't much more inland ay...?
