The pictures posted yesterday are indeed Whale Bay. You would go a long way to find a more idyllic spot. White sands, trees right down to the beach, warm and crystal-clear waters and no crowds. It is a ten- minute walk from the car park and there is a modern and clean public toilet right at the beach. It's 30 minutes from town and sounds like the perfect spot for a day's outing.
Thanks to a group of volunteers who watch over the car park, can be (when there are there, that is)
Out of the holiday season, you don't park there or the natives will teach you what 'entitilitis' is- by ransacking your vehicle. Local have told me they used to park with the car unlocked and the windows down, just to stop them smashing in.
Now I see the police are out in force today along SH1 and every uniformed member of the IRD had a car pulled over. Would that they were so vigilant in the high crime areas AKA car parks, along the coastline. How hard would it be to lurk in the shrubbery and pounce on these thieving cockroaches? A 'bait car' with a few goodies left on the front seat ad you would need the prison bus to take away the trash.
Or is that too hard and who could blame the cops when these two legged rats will be told off by the judge and given 50 hrs community service- that they will never attend...

Os, its not at all hard. We used to do it. Unfortunately it costs money and a lot of time to catch thieves, burglars and scrotes. Its far more financially viable to revenue gather on the nations highways.
We used to set up a bait car at the entrance to a track at Tangoio north of Napier. I recall one of my guys chasing some thieving arsehole who was leaping and bounding across the car park attempting to catch up with his car.
He had his wife and children with him in the car and his wife was looking after No. 1, briskly accelerating towards the exit to the road with the kids egging dad on to greater turns of speed from out the rear windows.
We discovered that there were many places in the North which were virtual "no go" areas because of the behaviour of such scum.
There are countless examples of them assaulting and robbing whitey and a hell of a lot of examples of the police claiming they could do nothing about it.
Until Kiwis get the balls to band together and deal to these pricks themselves it will only get worse.
Not that it's just Kiwis--this kind of thing is happening all across the West.
Never been to Whale Bay, but New Zealand surely scores great beaches. There are quite high costs associated with free campers at many of these places. I am not sure what the answer is. Some people say an entry fee to New Zealand. It appeals to my sense of values in NZ But you have to very careful with that idea, because the biggest spenders will resent that ideas
