At low tide you may be lucky to see the shore birds while you explore the exposed rock pools. The views at high tide on a fine day are spectacular – look west to see Manukau Heads, north to Matukutūruru (Wiri Mountain) and south to Kingseat.

There are reserves and playgrounds adjacent to the walkway that lend themselves to picnics and places to stop to breath in the beauty. The walking route is also great for cyclists, prams/buggies.
We looked for signs for dog walkers but saw nothing to indicate on or off leash areas. However, on the Auckland Council website it says: “Dogs must be kept under control on the walkway and away from local wildlife, and are not permitted on adjacent sports fields or near playgrounds.”
Hi, is this a loop walk or does it have a start and finish point? this calls it Weymouth Walkway Loop, but it appears to only be one length of 7.5kms.
Hi Gus
Thanks for the question about the Weymouth Walkway. Our walk is a loop walk that tracks along the coast one way and then returns via some of the streets and smaller tracks, thus creating a loop. The brochure for Weymouth contains this loop route.
Enjoy.
