101 Tamaki Drive, Mission Bay, Auckland 1071, New Zealand
A free feel Beach with lots of cafes and food joints. Clean sand, but with lots of sea shells. Public toilets available.
Good beach.Good public park.Beautiful views
Selwyn Reserve is one of my favourite places in Auckland. It’s beautifully maintained, right across from the beach, and ideal for a picnic or a relaxed afternoon with family or friends. The open grassy areas are great for kids to run around, and there’s always a vibrant, welcoming atmosphere. The views of Rangitoto Island from here are just stunning, especially around sunset. There are plenty of benches, and the palm trees give it a nice, tropical vibe. Being so close to the cafés and eateries at Mission Bay is also a huge bonus—grab an ice cream or coffee and enjoy the sea breeze. Perfect for a weekend stroll, a family day out, or just some solo time in nature. Highly recommend!
Fabulous grass area, beach, trendy restaurants and people.
This is a wonderful place to take a walk. Located opposite to the mission bay restaurants and cafes. I go there often to take a walk along the pathway next to the beach. Then have a coffee at one of the cafes then head off.
