A great loop track! Make sure to set time aside to visit the gorgeous smugglers Cove! 🏖️

The Smugglers Bay Loop Track is a cool little walk in Bream Head Scenic Reserve, offering coastal forest vibes, awesome views, and even some WWII gun stuff to check out. It's a 3 km loop that takes about 1.5 hours, so it's perfect for a quick adventure. You can start from the Urquharts Bay car park and make your way to Smugglers Bay and back. Just watch out for those steep drop-offs and keep an eye out for Maori sites along the way. Oh, and don't forget to scrub your shoes clean to protect the kauri trees!
