Pines Beach Golf

"The Pines," named after wilding pines became established when trees had been planted to stabilise the sand dunes. The area had been vested in the Kaiapoi Borough Council, and an Act in 1922 allowed the Council to lease out sections. The first baches began appearing after that. The miniature golf course was constructed about 1923 by the Hopkins family, one of the first bach owners. The section was sold in 1933 and more baches were built on the site.
