Oneroa Bay
✨ Hidden gem
Drop the hook off Oneroa Bay and you're right on Waiheke's doorstep — the island's most popular village is a short dinghy ride away, with cafes, bars, wine shops, and galleries all within easy walking distance. On a summer weekend this place buzzes, with plenty of other boats doing the same thing, so get in early for a good spot. For better shelter in NE–SE winds, tuck around to Matenga Point near Blackpool instead — well-protected and just a short walk to Oneroa without the crowds.
