Parks in Auckland

“Great place do visit, wasn't expecting to find such a diverse and interesting place but a local mentioned it and I'm glad they did. If you have young kids they'd live it for the animals and there are very good coffees and food to be had in this complex. St Andrews Church also suits beautifully nestled into this stunning area. Well worth stopping.”

“Nice and big park for kids. It has big and small slides, swing, and a nice place to ride a bike or scooter here. No public toilet.”

“Had a lovely evening Charter overlooking the Auckland bridge and Sky Tower. Great food, friendly staff and great music and party on board!”

“Good flat area. Smooth concrete path all around outside of park. Great for walking etc. Also a small playground for kids.”

“Growing up, I always heard mixed things about walking through Myers Park — but after the recent updates, it feels completely different. It’s brighter, cleaner, and feels much safer now. Great to see the space being revitalized — it’s actually a really nice spot to stroll through again.”

“Nixon Park is a great community space with a mix of recreational facilities. It features a playground, a basketball half-court, a skate park, and open grassy areas, making it ideal for families, sports enthusiasts, and dog walkers. The park is well-maintained and offers a peaceful atmosphere, though parking can be limited on busy days. With its convenient location and variety of activities, Nixon Park is a fantastic spot for outdoor fun and relaxation. Even it has kids playground and public toilets.”

“Well kept grounds and facilities. Little short on parking space. I added a photo for all you soccer parents to find out which field is where.”

“Super cheap Wairau has been very helpful with providing advice and recommendations while I’ve been restoring my project car. The range of stuff in there is good and if they don’t have it on hand they get it in for you. The credit system is great for when spending it’s essentially free money when you spend money and helps you buy those small things like extra cans of paint or $20-$30 off your next big purchase like oil changes or servicing.”

“Had our first birthday party there, and kids had an absolute blast! Lovely attentive staff, who had a lot of patience answering my endless questions. Lovely area for parents to wait while the kids are running around occupied for hours. Literally had to drag them away after 4 hours. Will definitely be back! Thank you, LiveWire Highbury Team!”
