Ah yes - this Beach at Matarangi would rate as one of the top 10 beaches by any standard! We managed to be there and enjoy the sunshine and surf - and spared a thought for my Mum who just loved this place. Wish you could be there again Oma!! The beach itself - totally deserted - nice smooth white sand and gentle surf. Really there is not much more else to say -any other words would be just waxing lyrically, and I am not going to do that right now!! Oma - enjoy!!
