Water Quality in Algies Bay
Clean water, safe swimming and a bay made for summer. One of the things that makes Algies Bay such a special place to live and visit is the water.

Algies Bay Cleanup Crew
Thank you for turning out this morning to work together on beautifying our bay.
Four teams headed in different directions to take on the projects. Great way to meet your neighbours.
Job all done in less than two hours and back to the sailing club for a well deserved sausage. Thanks again to Rob and the team at Warkworth Butchery NZ for the great sausages. They were amazing!
Thank you all for your support.
We even had dolphins in the bay. See if you can spot them.
Who We Are
Algies Bay Community Group (previously Algies Bay Ratepayers and Residents Association) has been functioning for many years and has built a solid reputation and forged a strong relationship with Auckland Council, the Rodney Local Board and other statutory bodies. These relationships have delivered considerable improvements to our bay — replacement seawalls, an upgraded main reserve and carparking, and a children's playground that attracts children from our community as well as visitors.
- We are a non-political association of local ratepayers and residents
- We represent the views of our members in all matters affecting Algies Bay
- We work with local clubs, businesses and groups
- We provide a forum for discussion on local issues
- We work with Auckland Council and the Rodney Local Board on local environment and planning matters
- We make non-partisan submissions to local bodies on legislation that affects Algies Bay
- We maintain links with groups in Warkworth, Snells Beach and Restore Rodney East (RRE) so our voices are heard
How are we organised?
Our committee consists of 10 elected members — Chairperson, Treasurer, Secretary and seven committee members. Monthly meetings are generally held at the Sandspit Yacht Club rooms on the second Wednesday of each month, and our Annual General Meeting is held every April.
Can I join the committee?
Yes. We are always keen to hear from residents who are passionate about Algies Bay and want to build on the improvements already completed. Time commitment is typically 2–3 hours a month. Email admin@algiesbay.co.nz and we'll welcome you to one of our meetings.
What happens to the money?
Subscriptions fund the running costs of the group — our website, administration, venue hire and similar operating costs.
Membership is $10 per household
A high membership base helps significantly towards continuous improvements to Algies Bay, as shown by the many improvements delivered over the last ten years and more.
