As part of the Shoreline Adaptation Plan: Waimanawa / Little Shoal Bayconsultation, we received feedback suggesting improvements to the central beach area at Waimanawa / Little Shoal Bay Reserve.

Benefits of the renewal

The renewal will align with the Local Park Management Plan and will:

• create more recreational activities
• improve public access to the foreshore and coast
• support cultural heritage and identity
• improve the environment in the coastal area.

What we want your feedback on

We want to know:

• how often you or people in your house use the reserve in summer
• how do you usually travel to the reserve
• what is your main activity at the reserve
• how we can acknowledge and celebrate the rich heritage of Wai Manawa
• how we can improve access for pedestrians
• what type of recreational facilities you would like at the reserve
• anything else you would like us to consider for the renewal.
