(iRealtyWire.Org) – St Heliers is one of the most popular suburbs in Auckland which is the largest city in New Zealand. It is only fifteen minutes from the Central Business District, and yet it retains its unique suburban identity. It is a quiet, sea-side, leafy, up-market suburb but it still retains its own high quality shopping and restaurant areas.

1. A sunny day.

It's great sitting on the sea wall looking out across the water to Rangitoto Island. Waves lap the shoreline while sailboats, kayaks, and other boats move on the sea. Ferries leave a white wake as they surge through the water travelling to Rangitoto or Waiheke Islands. There are swimmers, picnickers, and many others who have wandered across from the village to enjoy the sea-side. And best of all, this is all free.

2. Restaurants and Cafes.

Behind me and across the street people relax in cafes and restaurants enjoying the taste of coffee, delicious lunches, and the indoor/outdoor village cafe atmosphere. Others have arrived from their properties in the surrounding suburbs for shopping, to take a walk along the waterfront, catch up with friends, and enjoy the day. What a great place to live!

3. When the Weather Changes.

On a wild, wet and windy day, St Heliers can be exhilarating. Sea waves crash against the sea wall, blinding rain obscures Rangitoto Island, and wind carries the spray into your face. Walking along the waterfront on such occasions offers its own rewards. The buffeting winds and driving rain invigorate you as long as you are wrapped up in warm clothing and wet-weather gear. Try it sometime. You will love it.
