TRAVEL SURF TRIP The easiest way to describe Piha is breathtaking. It may sound like a cliché but from atop the Waitakere Ranges as Piha comes into full view you are greeted with a most awe inspiring panorama of rugged cliffs, the wild Tasman sea, volcanic black sand beaches and lush hillsides. In the gloomy conditions it almost had a foreboding, prehistoric feel about it. On one hand you’re bristling with excitement and on the other you are absolutely packing your duds.
