Scorching Bay, located on Wellington’s Miramar Peninsula, is one of the city’s most loved beaches thanks to its clear blue water, soft sand, and relaxed coastal charm. Sheltered from the wind, it is perfect for swimming, sunbathing, and family picnics on sunny days. The grassy areas and beachside café create a welcoming atmosphere, while the scenic drive along the coastline makes the journey part of the experience. With views across Wellington Harbour and a peaceful, holiday-like vibe, Scorching Bay feels like a summer escape without leaving the city. It is the ideal spot to slow down and enjoy waterfront living. “Scorching Bay” by Brian(https://www.flickr.com/photos/bdearth/38870435542), licensed under CC BY 2.0. “Scorching Bay rocks” by Jonathan Wilson(https://www.flickr.com/photos/kiwi_jono/23897046578), licensed under CC BY 2.0. “Scorching Bay” by stewartbaird(https://www.flickr.com/photos/sxbaird/38737119684), licensed under CC BY 2.0
