Bethalls Beach

[AnalogKid]

Our club Vice President arranged access to some private land at Bethalls Beach on the West Coast, only 20km from central Auckland on Sunday.

30 Land Rovers were in attendance, including 3 V8 90s, 2 Series 2s, a flat-deck 110 and an ex-Land Rover Experience NZ Tdi Disco.

An excellent day was had by all, I don't think anything got broke, and just look at that mid-winter weather!

Hello to NZ,

Looks like you had a fun time over there. :) Nice day too but nothing like we get here in G'sOC (as a long ago Premier of this State descirbed it :rolleyes: ).

Intrigued by the colour of the sand. Where is Bethalls Beach? Nice collection of Landys - any other pictures? :D

Cheers
Mark

Only got a couple of the line up of the 30 trucks, from a distance, nothing really worth posting though. I put the camera-phone away once we got rolling so it didn't get full of sand, lke everything else did.

Bethall's is on the west coast of the Auckland region, on the northern edge of the Waitakere Ranges, about 30km north of Manakau Harbour entrance. The sand is full of volcanic matter from Taranaki (the big bulge halfway up the west coast of North Island, which is a huge, near perfectly conical valocano).

I WOULD ASK KINDLY IF YOU WOULD STOP POSTING SUCH PHOT'S!!!!


If you are trying to make me homesick, you are succeding!!

I used to surf that beach allott!!!!!

I used to fish the Manukau harbour as well, and it is great for diving foe scollopes! But only in the hour of no tide movement.

Im off to sulk and view your picture somemore!!!

If you want a beach to drive on, west coast form waiuku, a beech called karitahi (sp) was my local beach for trashing landies and motor bikes..
