New Zealand has very strict dog laws, which could be a problem (but we ain’t no whinging poms), so we roll with it. When we got to Seabreeze holiday park one of the first things we asked was where were we allowed to take the dog. Sailor’s Cove was the answer, some place where a sailor died in the 1840’s. Doesn’t sound inviting does it? But it was. In fact it was a haven of tranquility, a little cove with white sandy beaches buffeted by a gentle surf.
We chilled out.
We read.
We just sat.
We fished.
We swam.
We body boarded.
The Spaniel ran, and ran
The Spaniel had surfing lesson (that didn’t go down well)
We had a picnic.
We had a little stroll.
We had fun.
We loved it.
Two Hoomans And a Spaniel In NZ 
That looks like one happy spaniel! Did you bring him/her with you to NZ? We brought our Labs over from Australia when we moved here late last year and are always interested in finding new places to take them. Will have to check this place out 🙂
We did, and she lost her voice for a few weeks so we felt incredibly guilty but this adventure would not have been the same without her. We’re still working out where we can go with her. Someone Bethell’s Beach is OK with dogs, or at least part of.
