The Yellow Bach on Campbells Beach; kayaks wifi Sky Sport Netflix sleeps 4

Welcome to the Yellow Bach!

Four people can enjoy a quiet sandy, safe and tidal beach just 80 metres across the grass. Front row position. Lovely sea and summer sunset views from the dining table. Seaside children's playground is a one minute walk away
There are some really nice and safe kayak paddles within the bay, up two mangrove creeks as well as around the coast.

A little under an hour north of Auckland, Campbells makes for a great escape place.
By car, Matakana is 9 minutes, Tawharanui Regional Park and Sandspit both 15 minutes and Warkworth supermarket 20 minutes.

Campbells Beach is a hotspot for birdlife. Listen to the kaka, bellbirds and tuis in the day time, kookaburras (true) at dawn and dusk and an owl at night.

Things to do at the bach
Kids love the seaside play ground and safe swimming beach
HD smart TV with MySky, fast wifi, Netflix

PADDLE through mangroves at Campbells Beach, across to Baddley's Beach and up their creek, and paddle out to enjoy the sunset on the water
WALK at low tide straight to gather cockles, left around the rocks to the next (no name) beach, right past Baddely's Beach to Buckleton Beach and even further. You can walk for hours.
