Bayswater

Bayswater is a small suburb famous for its "Son of Sailing" home town boy Sir Peter Blake. It is but a short ferry ride across the water from Auckland CBD. Also has a lovely marina. And also sports a sailing club for our budding young sailors.

Milford

Milford is but a short walk along the beach from Takapuna and hosts its own Marina and Boat Building Business and Boating Club with nice sandy beach and park-like setting. It also has some nice real estate to stroll past. Also 2 supermarkets for those picnic lunches with all manner of delicacy's and beverages. Great for beach for swimming and park is good to let the kids run around in or hit a cricket ball or toss a rugby ball around.
So do take in the sites of Milford on your stops to the North Shore
