On the road from Whitford to Maraetai, take the Beachlands Rd then left at Shelly Bay round-a-bout on to Karaka Rd. Some parking is available down the long driveway.
Beachlands is located in East Auckland.
Travel to Whitford along either Whitford Rd (From Howick) or Whitford Park Rd (from Papakura) or Ormiston/Sandstone Rd (From East Tamaki see map below)
Once in Whitford you travel round a hard left corner (past the BP petrol station) on the road to Beachlands & Maraetai.
From the Southern motorway (East Tamaki off ramp) travel along East Tamaki Rd until you reach Preston Rd. Ormiston rd is located only 50m from this intersection. Current Road works have blocked Ormiston Rd at Chapel Rd. Detour left along Chapel Rd (past St Pauls Church) then turn right at the first lights on to Stancombe Rd (FGS Temple) then take Murphys Rd back to Ormiston Rd (turn left at round-a-bout). Ormiston Rd eventually turns into Sandstone Rd.
