About
Tapeka Point is a sheltered bay right at the end of the Russell Peninsula. For boaties, there is a boat ramp at the end. This is a great little beach for the young ones with lots of flat sand. There are no waves so very safe. There is a platform they can swim out to for the older kids.
There is a coastal walk and a 360-degree lookout 10 minutes walk from the beach. You can anchor your boat in the Bay, and there are several Tapeka Point Accommodation options too, right on the beachfront.
