These big taupata trees have been here a long time. They are less than 3m from the edge. In very stormy weather, the sea has been up here.

This is one of my favourite paths, and it used to curve softly out through marram grass and down to the beach. Now it just stops.

Sadly, since the floods last June, the beach has been massively eroded, and the dunes are disappearing. It's one thing to know that storms will become more frequent and sea-level will rise, it's another to see it happening so rapidly.
Before June there was a beach path here, through dunes.
