PSA! It may be named Secret Cove, but thanks to the Auckland Council, now anyone can now come and enjoy Secret Cove.
Let’s face it, the North Shore has got it going on and now we’re guessing city-siders will be heading across the bridge even more often, given that this secret spot is nestled in the heart of the Shore. All Auckland dwellers are of course invited, because what is the Shore’s is yours, too.
Signs are to be put place at a later date, meaning the entry point may be a bit tricky to find. So, set your GPS to 60a Stanley Point Road, and you’ll be on your way to this magical destination.
You’ll find yourself wandering down the narrow path, down the stairs before finding yourself at this magical secret spot. Not only will it please your childish side (aka wharf jumping), but there’s also a scenic view of the Harbour Bridge (BYO picnic hamper).
And, if you’re lucky enough, catch the sun setting behind the Harbour Bridge…now that is bucket list-worthy!
