Mission Bay

Mission Bay is located just a few km east of downtown Auckland. Accross the bay you can see Rangitoto, one of Auckland’s many vocalnic peaks.

We caught a bus from Britomart (transportation center) and were there in a few minutes. We spent the day on the beach, in the water, and eating fish and chips at one of the shops lining the beach. By we I mean Bethany, Julia, our friend Andy from Germany, our friend Rand from South Africa, some Frenchie, and myself.

The water seemed quite warm, considering we are just coming out of winter. I rescued a starfish that had washed onto some rocks.
