The track from Administration Bay is accessed by the coastal track from Sandy Bay, off the Pohutukawa Track. It passes near Motutapu Outdoor Education Camp. Note that the camp is out of bounds for the public.
From Administration Bay the track clings to the coast to Pig Bay before moving inland across pasture passing several WWII bunkers and magazines. The track joins one of the arterial roads which walkers follow to Islington Bay.
Ensure you have plenty of time to complete your walk and catch the ferry.
