And I think I just may have found bath perfection, at the guest lodge of Bream Head Coast Walks in Northland's magical Whangarei Heads. The walk is the hardest option of those offered by Bream Head Coast Walks, a private business owned by long-time local Claire Pearson. They're just back from their firstwalk - a five-hour return trek from the lodge to Ocean Beach - and they're delighted at having seen a pod of dolphins close to shore. Pearson recommends we take on half the Ocean Beach walk, and she'll come and pick us up when we're done. She drops the four of us off at Ocean Beach, with a quick rundown of the route map, and then leaves us to go on our way.
