Tahuna Torea Nature Reserve
Glendowie
About
The walk along the sandspit out into the Tamaki Estuary provides a superb view of Howick, Mt Wellington and Brown's Island. At low tide you can almost walk across the estuary. An extensive series of bush walks in the mangroves bordering the sandspit provide a habitat for a large number of birds. Tracks also lead from the reserve along the estuary to Point England to the south and Ladies Bay and St Heliers to the north. The reserve is accessible from Riddell Road or West Tamaki Road in Glendowie.
