Kauri Point Centennial Park

Good shingled tracks lead from entrances off Onetaunga Road down to Kendall Bay with seats placed at strategic viewpoints.

Secondary tracks are well worth a visit in dry conditions and a pleasant coastal walk connects up with the Chelsea Sugar Refinery. The walk down to Kendall Bay is reasonably steep in places, but the views out over the Waitemata Harbour as you go make the effort well worthwhile. Kendall Bay itself has gently sloping sandy beaches - ideal for small children and swimming.

All tracks are steep in parts, with sections of steps. Care is required on secondary tracks in wet weather.

This area is significant to a number of different iwi in the area, and access was contested often in the past.
