Bench is a local scenic spot and tourist attraction in Ōrākei, Auckland, holding a 4.6 Google rating.
Great scenic viewpoints and roadside lookouts around Auckland’s eastern bays offer a peaceful pause along coastal walking routes and harbour drives. A good vantage point takes advantage of the natural elevation across the Waitematā Harbour, giving visitors an unhurried place to take in views of Rangitoto Island and passing boats. Locals often seek out these quiet spots at sunrise or early evening, when the light softens across the water and the surrounding coastal paths are at their calmest.
