Surfdale is a suburb of Waiheke that includes a shopping village on the southern coast on the road from Oneroa to Onetangi. There are grocery shops, takeaways, a pizza restaurant, Irish Bar and a nice tree shaded beach making it a pleasant place to stop as you explore the south coast of Waiheke Island.
If you are a bowls player Surfdale is also home of the Waiheke Bowling Club who welcome visitors and guests. They occasionally have an "all you can eat" roast dinner buffet with lashings of roast spud and gravy.
