The historic suburb of Devonport is the main base of the Royal New Zealand Navy and is accessible from Auckland via a 10-minute ferry ride. The suburb is very well located, with Auckland City Center right across the water and a great view of Hauraki Gulf and its islands from the waterfront. The ferry dock in Marine Square is adjacent to Windsor Reserve, a green space shaded by trees, so you can head here for some rest. If you’re looking for entertainment options, catch a live show or movie at The Vic Vintage Theatre & Cinema. Then, spend some time shopping for souvenirs at Victoria Road. A 2.7-km (1.68-mi) trek to Takarunga, also known as Mt Victoria, from King Edward Parade offers opportunities to explore the area.
Devenport is also known for accommodations with an affinity to nature. To know more, check out the top cabins near Devonport, New Zealand.
