The Muriwai Coastal Geographic Environment includes Muriwai Beach and the Northern part of Maori Bay and is found on the Tasman Sea coast at the northern end of the Waitakere Ranges 30km west of Auckland City.
It is approximately 17km West of Kumeu, 42 kilometres Northwest of Auckland city, at the southern end of an unbroken 50 kilometre stretch of beach which extends up the Tasman Sea coast to the mouth of the Kaipara Harbour. One of several popular beaches in the area (others include Piha and Karekare), it experiences a population explosion in summer when Aucklanders head to the sea.
Our study area extends from the southern point of Otakamiro Point (headland) to Okiritoto Stream (approximately 2.5km to the north). Offshore to the outer limits of surf and approximately 500m inlnad to the road east of the golf course. Roughly 3km north to south and 1km west to east = 3SQ km's.

The MCGE is located north of the Waitakere ranges, and is approximately 30 kms west of Auckland city. The MCGE is a vast quantity which stretches from the southern end of Otakamiro point (headland), up to Okiritoto Stream, which is approximately 50km.

The Muriwai regional park has a total area of approximately 183 ha, which backs the southernmost 10.5 km of Muriwai Beach. The park is bounded by the coastal village of Muriwai and by Woodhill forest along its eastern and northern margins.

the Okiritoto stream exits at the coast about 3km north of Otakamiro Point. Behind the first rank of sand dunes, close to the southern end, is the 64 ha Muriwai golf course. Seawalls were a significant part of this landscape until major damage occured in a large storm in July 1986.
