Since 2000 there have been 1416 rescues performed at the beach, which is famed for its pounding surf, treacherous rips - and in recent years for its starring role in the reality TV show Piha Rescue.
Piha was closely followed by its west coast neighbour Muriwai (1219 rescues). The Auckland pair were well ahead of the next two on the danger list - Mt Maunganui (830) and Whangamata (759).

How constructive wave form beach?
Constructive waves, as the name suggests, build up a beach. They are flat and low (around one metre in height) and their energy is limited. There are only a few waves per minute. The weaker backwash doesn't return all the material to the sea so the beach builds up.
The swash of a constructive wave pushes material up the beach as far as the berm - a ridge along the back of the beach. The berm marks the highest point of the spring tide.
Constructive waves form gentle beaches - an example of this can be seen at St. Cyrus.
