Why Go To Mission Bay ??!!
This is one of the best beaches you’ll find in Auckland, you’ll be able to tell when you visit from the amount of people who go there! The water is safe and clean (i assume) to swim in, there is a bbq area for those hot summer days and it’s a nice place to take the kids for a picnic. Dogs are allowed, this is a popular beach. Definately a good beach 10/0
why go to mission bay, because its beautiful
Mission bay has an awesome playground that is partly shaded, but point chevalier has those slides that heat up enough to fry an egg in summer. Whose idea was that? But otherwise, it is a good park. If you can get the big kids off the train! I love them both, for different reasons. I think the best things about mission bay is the lovely walk around the bays. Breathtaking! And Kelly tarltons! No contest really.
Ok, I'll conced that point chevalier has som very cute boutique cafes and shops along the way, and has the same sleepy art deco sea side feel that parts of devonport and belmont have, outside of traffic! Nice area. Shame that when the tide is out ot's a bit stink.
Yes its a wonderful area for families et al. Busy in summer but perfect the rest of the time.
