Red Beach is a suburb and beach on the Hibiscus Coast, Orewa, New Zealand. State Highway 1 currently runs through the suburb, but the majority of traffic travels along the Northern motorway inland instead, and the motorway will be redesignated as State Highway 1 when an extension is complete in 2009.
The population was 6,315 in the 2006 Census, an increase of 654 from 2001.

And many a sweet thing said,
And a young man brought him red wine
And a young girl white bread.”

Those burial clouds that lower victorious soon to devour all,
Watching, silently weeps.”
