Just out of the city beach ... Great swimming spot or just simply enjoy the view
Nice little spot to relax and enjoy great sea views and good swimming spot. Close to the city but far enough to feel at peace.

Howick

Visitors to Howick like its restaurants and shopping, and Howick Village Saturday Market is a sight worth a stop.

Howick
I've lived in Auckland over 10 years & didn't realise we had a beautiful Buddhist temple here. Really good vegetarian cafe here too, run by the monks.  Serenity. Can't wait too see cherry blossoms in a few months

Flat Bush

While Flat Bush may not have many sights to explore, venturing just a little farther will lead you to top things to see and do like Botany Town Centre and Otara Markets.
