Jersey Shore, Geordie Shore, Gandia Shore and The Valleys. Auckland has the North Shore (minus all the TV cameras and dumb headlines).

Here's a good snapshot of me being a classy tourist on the Shore :-) After visiting Takapuna, Devonport, Northcote, Birkenhead and Albany I would say I'm classy as.

The below British Mk XIV mine was part of the NED minefield that was laid to protect Auckland during WWII. After the field was swept in 1944, it now becomes a tourist attraction for fiery tourist such as myself.

Oddly enough the gated area behind me is now the national headquarters of the Royal New Zealand Navy as this is also the location where the Maori pa (fortified settlements) we located. It's also a divine place to grow kumaras (sweet potatoes).
By the way, wanna live in Devonport? Get your cheque book out and start adding zeros. The place is directly across from central Auckland so the views are stunning and the place charming.
