Stunning Auckland Sunset Spot

🇳🇿 Auckland’s breathtaking Half Moon Bay! Step into a postcard-perfect sunset paradise⛵️ Speechless from the beauty of hundreds of sailboats + flocks of seagulls filling the sky! The relaxed vibe of New Zealand is all hidden in this treasure bay~ 📍Location: Half Moon Bay, Auckland 🌅Best viewing time: 1 hour before sunset (around 7:30 PM in summer / 5:30 PM in winter) 🚗Transportation tips: 1️⃣ Drive and navigate to "Half Moon Bay Marina" (25 minutes from downtown) 2️⃣ Take the Howick bus line to Half Moon Bay station, then an 8-minute walk ✨Soul-stirring scenes: - Hundreds of white sails glowing golden like scattered piano keys - Perfectly captured moment of seagulls flying across the evening glow! 📸Two top photo spots: 1️⃣ Pier extending walkway (sailboats in the foreground + sunset in the background) 2️⃣ Eastern rocky beach (low angle shots of waves + sailboat silhouettes) 🍴Recommended seaside restaurant: The Flatwhite Café (by the pier) Must-try green-lipped mussels! Pair with Sauvignon Blanc while watching sailboats return to port for a super chill experience~ 💡Tips: • Bring a telephoto lens! Use live mode on your phone • Windbreaker essential (you know the bay’s wild winds) • Fresh seafood available at the Saturday morning market
