The Mangawhai Surf Club and surrounding area remains off limits to the public due safety concerns, following the landslide behind the clubhouse earlier this year.
This includes the beach directly in front of the building. Kaipara District Council has closed parts of the Mangawhai Heads Recreation Reserve, including the Mangawhai Heads lookout and public tracks behind the clubhouse, the lower carpark and boat ramp.
“We acknowledge there is limited access to the area at the moment,” a Council spokesperson said.
“We are reviewing the parking options available and appropriate beach access.”
Meanwhile, Mangawhai Surf Club is working on the next steps for the club building.
The beach is still accessible for the public by using the northern access track, across from the upper car park.
