Wynyard Quarter
Wynyard Quarter is a redeveloped former industrial waterfront area next to Viaduct Harbour, now home to restaurants, bars, a playground, and open lawns along the water. It has a slightly more relaxed, less polished feel than the adjacent Viaduct, with working fishing boats still docked at the fish market end.
It's a good spot for a waterfront walk, a casual meal, or letting kids run around the playground and splash pad, and connects easily to the wider downtown waterfront walkway.
