East of Hog Bay the coast is dominated by metasedimentary bedrock, which forms a rocky shoreline and rises as vegetated slopes to heights of 150 to 200 m. These rocks extend for 15 km east and then southeast to the Chapman River mouth. Along this entire section are only six small pockets of sand, totalling just 200 m in length. All are backed by usually cleared farm, with no public access.
The first beach (KI-48) is just 1 km east of Hog Bay. It is a 40 m long pocket of high tide sand and cobbles fronted by mid to low tide rocks and boulders. This beach can be reached on foot from Hog Bay.
