Manawatu Beaches closed to all vehicles
We absolutely know that being on the beach is wonderful. But... if you are going to the beach they are closed to vehicles. Leave your car in the car park and walk, remembering to keep distance between people not in your group.
Why no cars? because if you get stuck (or worse) others need to help you - this puts them at risk. AND if you are walking your dog ensure it is on the leash, this will reduce the risk to others of contact.
