Mind, Body & Soul - Bikram Yoga with Achel is the most fun way of keeping fit! Make sure you are well hydrated and take your towel with you!

Go in the group of 4 and burn the calories while playing doubles! Fun way to keep fit!!

I come here with my friends & family all the time! Swim, Spa - fun way of working out!

Thanks to Jetts - they are everywhere! They make working out so easy!

We Kayak around Mission Bay on the weekends to be outdoor in the nature while burning some calories too!

A day at the Zoo makes everyone happy.

Rock climbing has never been so fun or easy. Clip and Climb is great!

MOTAT great to check out with the family.

Take a lazy walk around the domain and check out the Auckland Museum.

Such a tranquil spot. Mission bay is perfect for a lazy Sunday.

Went to Kelly Tarlton's to experience the underwater world sea creatures. It was truly an absolutely amazing experience and we enjoyed it very much. Will definitely be taking my family for a beautiful underwater world experience.

WOW, what a fantastic place for all people who love snow. I went with a group of friends and we truly enjoyed ourselves very much. As we had never experience what snow was like, our time at snowplanet was amazing. We did skiing and going up the cable car. Though it was a challenge we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves.

As we had bought vouchers, we went to Lilliputt Mini Golf and enjoyed the golfing. Its really fun when you go with a group of friends. Everyone was in competition with each other trying to see who can get the ball in the hole with the minimum about of golfing. As we go from one round to the other, it becomes harder but also gets more fun.

The whole family was really happy that a new bowling place called Metrolanes Bowling has opened right in the heart of Auckland City. It is centrally located in the same building as the Event Cinemas, which makes it a perfect indoor activity for the entire family. We had a very enjoyable time playing bowling. Looking forward to taking my best friends down for a game of bowling.

We went with a group of friends and played a couple of bowling games. We truly enjoyed it very much. Will definitely return back again. Staff too were very polite and helpful.

A long spacious golden sand mild west Auckland beach! Great for the kids, together with a loooonnnnnggg wide stretch of mowed grass for cricket, frisbee, soccer touch, volleyball etc. Several changing rooms and loos and freshwater showers just off the beach. Tons of shade under the pohutakawas that strech along the miles of beach. Best 2 hours either side of high tide (just Google it).

She’s free to Aucklanders. Take a household bill and they’ll sort you out a free card to to flash each time you come. Craft activities for the kids need a gold coin donation. free lockers in the Kai room above the atrium, or the bagcheck in the foyer. Loads to see. Great on a wet day or if you’re too sunned out.

Free entry. Free kids activities on the first floor. Have a wander around but don’t touch! The cafe is very good - the sausage rolls are probably the best in Auckland, and then there’s the scones…. But if you just want coffee use the expresso bar on the top floor as there’s hardly ever a queue. Free compulsory bag check but cameras allowed and keep your sunnies for sprawling on the curvy bench on the back of the top floor. Choice bro.

Devonport. She’s free, mate. TAKE CARDBOARD. Drive to the top or park at the bottom and follow the spiral path to the summit with older kids. Awesome views, great for a picnic. Slide down the sides on your cardboard like a boss. You’ll find plenty of slide tracks the locals use, fast, slow, the odd jump, evn one for the littlies. Make like a local and have a fab time, The kids will remember this one :) Do the decent thing and put some money into the local economy by buying them all an iceblock afterwards. Priceless.

Or any swimming pool. Kids are free, you can even take your own food and drinks. hydroslide is an extra $2 that you need to pay on entry - the wristband then gives unlimited slides, although there’s usually a 5 min queue. Try Mount Albert if you’re not out west or the Parnell Pools in the summer if your kids are little (take a sun shelter tho)

We go to Kelly Tarlton's at least once a year on camp - and that means we get to sleep over, right in the tunnel under the aquarium where you can see the sharks swimming above you all night. This is an amazing place. They have huge 300kg Stingrays, a giant squid (dead of course) and so many other attractions. It also changes every year. The first year I saw mantis shrimp which are a great find!

I love coming here for parties or relaxation times with the kids. They are always happy to spend a few hours climbing the enormous fig trees or going on adventures down by the massive redwoods. We spent some fun times feeding leaves to cows too! There are toilet facilities nearby and a fancy restaurant if you'd like some delicious tea and scones.

This is a great venue for parties. We spent a whole day here, tiring out kids. There's trampolines of course but also tarzan ropes and climbing areas.

This is a very good high energy kids party place! The staff are great, safety is well monitored. You'll probably want to bring some adults to help belay kids up the wall - or to climb themselves. You don't need ropes to go "bouldering", which is climbing under an overhang. If you fall off you just end up on mats, something I did plenty.

This is my favourite beach, we often come here for walks with the kids or do a bit of body surfing. The waves are wild so I stay quite shallow with young kids and we always have a good time. The perfectly calm swimming pool beaches on the east coast are better for really young kids. Another attraction here is the Gannet colony, quite a sight. We sometimes grab some food in Kumeu and park at the beach to eat and watch the sunset.

Spectacular place for a night out with the kids playing mini putt golf, super bright neon style. The kids will be talking about this place for ages afterwards and they'll BEG you to please take them again :)

They've got Paradice Ice in the Aotea in winter now and it's a great day out for the whole family. Once you've learned to ice skate it's like riding a bike - you never forget how to glide over the ice and have so much fun

I love wandering through this place filled with so many memories from childhood spent close to the waters edge. The rocking ship's cabin really captivates what it must have felt like below decks and after the kids have had a good look throughout, you can have afternoon brunch in the cafe outside

The best place to spend a whole day with the kids, young and older riding the pirate ship and the log flume and best of all the roller coaster. Fun for the whole family

Perfect day out for the littles - they'll love to wander amongst all the little critters and the interactive farmyard is sure to delight them and for the more adventurous ... croc encounters - they will even let you feed the fish and some of the animals

$15 for over an hour of rock climbing! with all the equipment and training you need provided! Great family weekend activity - perfect for birthday parties.

Good wholesome fun! They also have a bar for the 18 plus members of the family and a great restaurant for everyone. You can take over the separate mezzanine bowling area for all your rowdy victory dances!

I loved loved loved being taken to the observatory when I was a wee lass. I’m sure kids these days are still fascinated in the great big universe out there. A family pass is $30 for two adults and three children - what a bargain!

A full day family pass (2 adults and 2 children) at $180 is pretty reasonable given the convenience of being located in Auckland. Great way to get the kids active for a day.

Entry is $6, skate hire is $3 and spectating is free - this is an amazing afforadable family activity and a good way to wear the kids out!

So much fun exploring all the tunnels in this amazing historic site. it's a unique New Zealand experience the whole family enjoyed.

This beautiful spot is always a hit even in winter. Our 8yo loves finding all the hidden tracks and can spend hours watching the birds and hunting for rabbits.

One of our favourite places in Auckland. Watching the animals works for the whole family. Always an in-depth discussion on which ones to see first!

Rain or shine, day or night the museum will always fascinate our family. Not only informative, it's a fun way to learn about New Zealand's past and the world around.

Great way to spend a wet afternoon... who doesn't love glow in the dark and mini golf? It's a fun way to get the kids out of the house!

Situated in the shopping centre, there's lots of free parking available. It has a games room and bar to chill in pre or post movie.

It's right in the middle of Sylvia Park shopping centre which means it's easy to grab a coffee or quiet drink with friends after the movie finishes.

It's nice and modern with an onsite bar and balcony overlooking Aotea Square. The miniature bowling lanes on the mezzanine floor are really cute!

It's a good sized pool hall, plenty of tables with a nice chilled out vibe.

Inside a beautifully designed building, there's always an interesting art exhibition on. The cafe has some tasty treats also.

Perfect grown up day even if you have the kids in tow.

The view. The tunnels. A must!

The perfect spot to stop after walking the Devonport waterfront.

Get off the Devonport Ferry and grab a bike. Best place to rent tandem bikes, tagalong bikes, adult bikes with kids seats and helmets. This is the way a family should see Devonport and Auckland.

The building itself is amazing and the art is world class. Staff - beyond Fab!

Great time to upskill for the coming winter season.

Let the talented team look after your kids these holidays in Hamilton, North Shore, Auckland and Tauranga

So much to do in and beautiful setting, a holiday programme or afterschool care activity for your child.

Keep your children thinking, active and challenged with the Discovery Labs computer design programmes.

Learn to swim programmes with Northern arena for intensive training, and term lessons. Make sure your children can swim.

Love the classes.. from Body Jam to Body Balance!

Best Yoga place I have been to! Barbara is such an amazing teacher in tune with each persons abilties

SUP classes- best work out EVER!!!!!! Great thing to do with friends especially in the summer!

New experience- and once you get used to the heat, a really good workout!

Fun for all ages, and a great way to keep fit too!
