About Teal Park

Teal Park at Mechanics Bay marks the eastern end of the CBD waterfront and is the gateway to the eastern beaches of Okahu Bay, Mission Bay, Kohimarama and St Heliers. The park’s location makes it an ideal spot to watch the shipping and boating activity on the Waitemata Harbour and the helicopter-landing pad at Mechanics Bay. The park is owned by the Auckland Council.

Some preliminary concept work has been done toward transforming Teal Park into pleasant green open space with better access to and from the water and Tamaki Drive. This small but strategic piece of land will play a role important role in making the waterfront a more accessible and attractive destination.
