Absolutley stunning park, the perfect oasis for weary sightseers! The tropical plants were the best bit for me, but we went for a little wander here most days.

This was pretty close to our accommodation so we had a few bbqs as well as following some of the guided walks around the historical attractions.

Stunning scenery, beautiful place to go. My wife and I took a trip here for a day's walking and relaxing and it was the highlight of our holiday in Auckland. The replica lighthouse was proving a big attraction for some but we preferred to stick to nature and enjoy the area around manakua head way from the people.

just south of auckland but a bit of a drive the way the bays come together, worth it though

Really great evening, we went for the sky at night program and it's fascinating to see the stars on the other side of the world, being so unfamiliar! Would advise going early and checking out the lovely Cornwall Park before it gets dark too.

This is a large expanse of inner city parkland in Auckland. Its a nice relaxed spot and contains the national museum as well as the cultural and war museums. The national museum is especially worth a visit for its wide collection of Maori carvings as well as the Maori cultural performances which happen a couple of times a day.
