Orewa History
Since early last century a number of factors have radically reduced the width of dry sand along much of Orewa's beach length. Sand mining, loss of natural sand dunes, construction of tipped rock walls and the blasting of the river mouth in 1959 have all contributed to the current poor health of Orewa Beach.
