Ninety Mile beach is officially a highway in New Zealand, but is really recommended for 4WD vehicles and is safe to drive only at specific times of the tides. The easy way to drive along the beach is to catch a coach tour from Kaitaia. If you are short of time in Northland and staying in the Bay of Islands, coach tours and scenic flights up to Cape Reinga depart from Paihia daily.
The story goes that the early European settlers named it because they knew their horses could travel up to 30 miles in a day. So if the trip along the beach took them three days, it must be 90 miles long, right? Unfortunately, they didn't account for the slower pace of travelling on sand. (Reference from google search)
