Driving on the beach restricted

The Team from Kāpiti Coast District Council

We're in for a great summer Kāpiti, which means our beaches will be busy.

Remember, driving on the beach is restricted to a few areas and for things like launching and retrieving boats. It's not a motorway out there, so please stick to the speed restrictions, and leave the motorbike at home!

It's important we all stick to the rules so everyone stays safe. Council staff have been out and about this summer to chat with beachgoers and, where necessary, issue tickets to drivers parked where they shouldn't be.

There's loads of information about our beaches and how to access them without a car – including the nearly 100 pedestrian access ways along the coast – on our website.

Visit kapiticoast.govt.nz/beaches to find out more.
