Beach 5

On Havelock's eastern coast, palm-ringed Beach 5 has your classic tropical vibe with cream-coloured sand, cerulean sea, shady patches and few sandflies. Swimming can be difficult at low tide, when the water shallows out for kilometres.

There's plenty of accommodation sprinkled around just back from Beach 5.
