So did I MickyB, :/ But I couldn't find any bays that looked like that in the south and guessed the closest place I knew (awful logic, I know)

I honestly have no idea where it is wayno, and as nobody else seems to either, I'm just guessing my way along the map. Sorry :(

Kaipara Harbor.

To me it looks similar to photos I have seen of New Brighton Beach near Christchurch although I doubt this is the correct answer.
