Head out from LyLo Auckland with Dajana and other fellow travelers for a chill half-day trip to Devonport, and trust us, it’s a gem just a ferry ride away across the sparkling Waitematā Harbour. First things first, let's grab some coffee from a cute local coffee place, then head out to Mount Victoria, where you can snap some epic pics of Auckland from the top. It’s all about the views here!
Next, kick off your shoes at Cheltenham Beach. It’s the perfect spot to lay back, catch some rays, or dip your toes in the ocean. Seriously, it’s as peaceful as it gets.
Finish off by exploring North Head. It’s got all these cool old military tunnels and guns – kind of like stepping into a history book, but with awesome views of the Hauraki Gulf
So, if you’re up for a mix of chill vibes, and some unbeatable sights, this half-day trip to Devonport is just the ticket.
Note: Total trip walking distance is up to 10km, mostly on concrete paths.
