What do you think about dogs and cars on Waikanae beach?
Is it time to get dogs and cars off the Waikanae beach and to do more to protect the estuary?
The deteriorating state of the nationally important estuary has been highlighted after a visit by a lost black tern.

"We really need Waikanae community awareness and help to halt declining values, including by walking their dogs and driving their vehicles elsewhere."
