Glenbrook Vintage Railway
Kariotahi Beach

Just
south of Auckland and within an easy drive of the international
airport lies the sleepy town of Waiuku.
Increasingly
a home to many ex-Aucklanders, Waiuku offers slices of sophistication
with a town-size charm.
There
are cafes and restaurants that offer good food - some at Auckland
prices - but if you are after quality then there's no drama.
It
is also top spot to explore the rural area of south Auckland and
the rugged black sand beaches of New Zealand's west coast, in particular
the little known gem Kariotahi.
 Not
far out of Waiuku at Glenbrook is a vintage
railway that operates on Sundays and public holidays.
