The most popular area at Mapoutahi as it's closest to the beach and carpark. Great climbs, well bolted and relatively sound rock (after the block was removed!).
Drive or walk down the sand track until you reach a left turnoff around 50m from the beach end carpark. Alternate route along the bottom of the cliff face from the beach carpark.
