Tunnel Beach

It takes some effort to get to Tunnel Beach but as you can see the view is stunning. In fact it is easier going down to the beach than climbing up again! The beach gets its name from a small access tunnel dug into the cliff face.

Sailing past on the horizon is a luxury cruise ship. Passenger ships make frequent visits during the summer months and bring thousands of overseas tourists to Dunedin.
