Hope you enjoy my Manakau walks in South Auckland

Manukau, where coastal walks are the name of the game. There are the Manukau Harbour Coastal Walks, offering stunning views of the harbour and peaceful pathways for those sunny day strolls. It’s a prime spot to catch the sea breeze.

Then there’s the Manukau Foreshore Walkway/Cycleway – it’s not just for bikes! This one’s perfect for leisurely walks along the waterfront, taking in the sights and sounds of the sea. It’s a local favourite.

Manukau’s all about waterfront adventures, whether you’re on the harbour or by the foreshore.
