Devonport
Village
Devonport is a delightful seaside village whose colonial history
is unspoilt by the passage of time. One of Auckland's earliest settlements,
the village mixes charm and civility with beautifully restored old
villas.
This unique location on the harbour peninsular along with sandy
beaches provides stunning views over Auckland - New Zealand's City
of Sails, the Waitemata Harbour and the islands of the Hauraki Gulf
from its three Mounts.
Many locals
know Devonport peninsular as the “Village of Auckland”,
it is laden with history commencing with Maori occupation before
the arrival of Europeans and the establishment of the first European
settlements in 1840. Devonport is surrounded by sea and commands
magnificent 360 degree views from Mount Victoria Takarunga, of the
Hauraki Gulf and Auckland City, just across the bay. Devonport derives
much of its charm from the fine examples of colonial villas that
have been restored and renovated, together with the beautiful examples
of native flora that can be seen in the many parks, reserves and
beaches of the village. These influences are portrayed and represented
in the wealth of local art, craft and sculpture displayed in village
galleries.
The Royal New
Zealand Navy operates a base in Devonport of which there are various
historic sites.
