Coast Road starts in Homedale, marked by its suburban environment and the historic Coast Road Church. This suburban stretch ends at Ngaturi Park. Moving further south, the area becomes rural, with lifestyle blocks and farming homesteads. Near 202 Coast Road, you’ll come across an old cottage with Camp Wainui (Boys Brigade) next door. Continuing, you’ll pass the Wainuiomata Golf Course and reach the entrance to Catchpool Valley, which offers numerous scenic walks in Remutaka Forest Park. Further south, the road reaches the rugged southern coastline of the North Island, providing a stunning outlook to the Cook Strait with views of the South Island.
