| Why choose an Auckland Lifestyle ? |
From all the world's cities, Auckland, New Zealand consistently ranks in the top ten cities for quality family lifestyles.
Stunning views, gorgeous beaches, lush forests, first class tourist attractions, quality shopping and excellent restaurants.
Whatever your interests are, museums, art, cutting-edge fashion or fine wines and cuisine, there's sure to be something here to captivate your senses.
Check out the trendy restaurants and bars of the Viaduct, sample award winning wines in a beautiful vineyard, sip a latté in a Queen Street pavement cafe or browse the fashionable shopping precincts of Parnell, Ponsonby, Botany Down and Newmarket.
Just half an hour from the city and you could be on one of the many scenic islands of the Hauraki Gulf, be enjoying a barbecue on a lonely beach, experiencing a swim with wild dolphins, riding the surf of the wild beaches of the west coast or be teeing off at a world class golf course.
Aucklanders are intimately associated with the ocean. Waitemata Harbour is a busy place, with everything from expensive pleasure yachts cruising the islands, motor boats heading out for a days fishing, windsurfers racing across the bays and ferries on their way to Rangitoto, Waiheke and Great Barrier Islands.
Relax in one of the many parks, visit the local attractions, museums and art galleries or go tramping in the Kauri bush.
Whatever you like to do there’s never a shortage of activities to keep you entertained in and around the wonderful 'City of Sails'.
Situated on a narrow stretch of land between the beautiful Waitemata and Manakau harbours, the area was first inhabited only around 1000 years ago when the Maori people arrived here.
The first Europeans started migrating in the late 18th century followed more recently by many immigrants from the Polynesian Islands, Asia and the rest of the world.
With such a culturally diverse background this city really is an exciting place to live.
Take your time to browse through the pages of our web site as we explore all this and much more together.
Hopefully we will encourage you to live, work and play in New Zealand and you will want to experience for yourself the wonderful lifestyle this beautiful city has to offer.
