What defines the region west of Auckland?

• Pure
• Yet looked after
• Closeness to city activities

DRIFTWOOD

The west has a vast, wild and unspoiled coastline that is at times interrupted by small secluded beaches. Beaches like Piha, Karekare, Bethells and Muriwai are popular among surfers. Meanwhile the east has the calmer waters ideal to kite surfing, kayaking and sailing.

The Waitakere Ranges knot together more than 240 km of track and trail along the coast, through bush and rainforest. Basic campgrounds invite to overnight tramps. The Auckland wider region offers numerous more Regional Parks in varying sizes. All are different and have something special to offer.

Festivals that celebrate the differences and bring people together to share the highlights of their cultural heritage mark yearly events as do cultural highlights like film, music and theatre festivals. These take place in a smaller scale in the suburbs of Auckland but through the closeness to the city bigger events are easily accessible.

West Auckland’s location combines it all; sightseeing, cultural life and shopping with exciting outdoor activities and experiences.

We walked, tramped, swam, skimmed, visited, photographed and took part, and we have lived here now for several years. We still love our chosen home country through all the seasons regardless of rain, wind and thunder for the many, many hours of sunshine :)
