Omanu Beach, another of Mount Maunganui's pristine coastal beaches is renowned for its golden sands, rolling waves, and vibrant beach culture. As an integral part of Mount Maunganui, Omanu Beach offers a distinct coastal experience and is also another beautiful spot for photography.

With its long, sweeping stretch of soft, golden sand, Omanu Beach provides an idyllic setting especially at sunset.

Time it with the mid tide and there are stunning reflections of Mount Maunganui on the sand and beautiful colours in the sky at sunset. Take your mid range zoom lens with you for this spot.
