1 / 3Long Bay Regional Park
π Long Bay, Auckland
Long Bay Regional Park is a sheltered North Shore beach with calm swimming, BBQ facilities, a playground, grassy picnic areas, and a coastal track to Granny Bay. Free parking and free entry.
π Family Action Verdict
The calm, shallow beach makes Long Bay one of the more relaxed swimming spots for young children. BBQs, a playground, changing facilities, and a coastal walk all in one place - genuinely set up for a full day rather than a quick stop.

βItβs a healing beach with a large grassy area for many children. Itβs perfect for bringing young kids to swim, as the waves are not very strong.β
