Since the hundreds of campers have left the area the dunes are regenerating. A large stretch of sand north of the beach is an example where in five years the sand hills are building and the sea swept maram grass and spinnifex buried in the sand, are growing.

A very special feature about Shoal Bay is the chance to see the dolphins swimming in the breakers and the whales passing by feeding in the Marine Reserve.

Woolshed

The historic woolshed will be 100 years old next year. The Aramoana Station Woolshed was built by the McHardy Family and used by surrounding stations to ship wool to the Port of Napier. The Woolshed is a fantastic example of early sheep farming in New Zealand and is in the process of being painted, re-roofed, and renovated for the future. It is hoped that his magnificent building of historic importance to the area will be used as an education centre for visiting groups to the Marine Reserve and Ouepoto Wetlands.
