If you like beaches, this one is definitely worth a visit. Expansive, beautiful and so quiet. Wear shoes to get close to the water as the sand is really hot! Unfortunately we missed the Gannet colony as it’s closed for path repair.

Able to get very close to the colony without distrusting the colony. Great opportunity for photos of the gannets and pacific gulls. Lots of chick's and developing young. Good views over the nearby beaches

Absolutely wonderful to visit these amazing birds to view them up close but without disturbing them. This colony of gannets is located about 40 minutes from Auckland and is a "must" for nature lovers. We totally enjoyed watching the birds zoom around in the wind and protect their little chicks. Lots of fun!

Rugged cliff line getting pounded by strong surf, all while the countless Gannets do their thing.
Great experience, made easy with great roads, parking, board walks and signage

You can walk up to the gannet colony from the beach or drive up. If driving, take the road up near the roundabout and keep an eye out for the gannet colony sign. There are a few parking spots at the top and it has a nice view of the beach below.
There is a pathway that leads to two different lookout sites. One is close to the carpark and the other closer to the beach walkway. Both have stairs to get to the lookout.
The birds are so close to the lookout points. You can see them sitting, walking and interacting with each other. The closeness gives you a feel for their size. It was a nice little walk to both lookouts and it had a nice view over the water, along with the nesting colony.
It is worth the walk up to see these amazing birds up close and personal.

Muriwai is a spectacular west coast beach. The wind roars and the waves pound in, making it popular with both gannets and kite surfers.
There’s a car park with toilets just off the beach. From there it’s only a few minutes walk (uphill) to several lookouts that give great views over the gannet colony (gannets here from August to March). Don’t stop there though - we did an 11km loop walk, carrying on from the gannets inland (and further uphill), before following the road gently curving back down towards the beach, then circling around the golf course before walking back along the beach to the car park. Search for ‘Muriwai Beach and Gannet Colony’ on AllTrails for more detailed directions.

Muriwai's gannet colony is a one hour drive from the centre of Auckland. Next to the car park, a short walking track leads to a viewing platform right above the main colony area.
It is an easy walk to the viewing platforms but flat shoes should be worn.
Love the wildness of the West Coast - on a summers day the wind was welcome.

It is a great spot for a family day trip! Easy to walk for kids. We loved it! We didn’t see much birds though.

I guess it depends on how much you want to pay. I presume it will be quite costly.

From Murwai beach side there is a steep stairs. But from the other side of the colony there is a paved path, which while steep I think would be wheelchair accessible.
