4 mile reef

★★★★☆ (39)

Good parking, onsite toilets, changing rooms, BBQ facilities. Grass area to set up. Easy shore entry on sand/stone extending down to 30mtr+. Water clarity generally good on sand area, some silt on dropoff. Easy site to Navigate. Best wind conditions are less than 8knts and easterly (offshore) direction.

Before the decent you are surrounded by the snow capped Ruapehu in the background once sub-merged there are lots of Koura and rainbow and brown trout.
