North Shore

The North Shore offers a fantastic coastal setting without traveling miles away from town. Just a short ferry from downtown Auckland or drive across the Harbour Bridge. Discover beautiful beaches, lush native bush and spectacular views of the Hauraki Gulf. Stay in beautiful historic villas or enjoy unspoiled sea views, just a stones throe away from downtown Auckland, Takapuna or Devonport. Just an hour from the airport up the motorway.

The natural advantages of a warm climate, beautiful beaches and spectacular scenery contribute to the popularity of this area for hosting wedding and receptions, especially wedding photography. It is not uncommon to see 5-6 weddings in Takapuna alone on a summers day. Who can go past an unspoiled view of Rangitoto or the North Shore bays of golden sandy beaches?
