Lake Rua
Fantastic spot really close to the city. Just had the toilets and parking upgraded ready for summer. Great place to watch the planes go over too, when the wind is right.

Beautiful location near Stokes Valley, good for a walk or bike to enjoy the scenic views of the Hutt Valley.

Lake Rua
Great place for a swim, had a blast. There was a lot of people there today resulting in a lack of parking but still managed. Look forward to coming back

The best little bay in the Whangarei Harbour. Helped create it as a kid 60 plus years ago

Lake Rua
Really beautiful place, lovely water, deep, decent parking, very spacious, does get quite busy but great place to have a BBQ, crack open a few drinks and hang out with your mates. There is also a jet ski lake that is close by that you can watch and a canoe polo lake. Super good place to relax in the summer.

Parking is terrible, potholes and busy, lots of sand flies and mosquitoes, not sure about swimming the current was too strong

Good place to go for a swim. Deep swimming hole with a rock cliff to jump off. Also has walk tracks and bike trail along the side of the river always good to be out and about in the great outdoors.

Lake Rua
I didn't know this place existed! The lake is fantastic for water fun or even a walk. There's toilets and (external) showers, one picnic table, but no rubbish bins (please take it home with you). Low wind days, air planes taking off feel very close.
