Wynyard Quarter Must Do's
Wynyard Quarter
This revived and pedestrianised waterfront precinct is brimming with harbourside eateries, gelato parlours, surprising silos, modern play areas and funky green spaces to sit and relax. There’s also a cute Container Library where you can swap and borrow books, or simply sit and read one.

Auckland Fish Market
A 96- year old building with the Sandford & Son fishmonger at its heart and plenty of contemporary eateries, too. With a décor that pulls in as much natural light as possible, it feels alfresco while being protected from the elements. Dishes are as simplistic as mussels and frites and as polished as freshly caught lobster.

Silo Park
The six silos at the end tip of Wynyard Quarter were once used as giant containers to storecement. Silo 6 is now an art and exhibition space while Silo 7 comes alive throughout summer when free Friday night movies are projected onto its enormous cylinder. Complemented by food stalls and night markets.
