After the Historical Village we stopped off in Howick for lunch, which had the air of a seaside town with nice restaurants, and loads of seconds hand book shops and antique shops. From here we headed down to Howick beach - a popular area for smaller boats.
Moving north up the coast we stopped at several beaches along the way - firstly Mellons Bay with the view over to Rangitoto Island.
Then onto Eastern Beach - very popular with families due to the shallowness of the water heading quite a way out.
Finally we headed up past Bucklands Beach to Musick Point where an old radio station was based, and used predominantly during the Second World War. From the point we had spectacular views over the Hauraki Gulf, and in particular Rangitoto Island, with Browns Island in the foreground.
