Popular with young families due to its affordability, Beach Haven is an interesting, diverse mixed bag. There are some beautiful coastal spots here with great views, plenty of park land and even a ferry to take you across for Hobsonville or round the point into the city.  You’ll love being close to Shepherd’s Park – an off-leash dog park with a kid’s playground, exercise equipment, squash, bowling and tennis facilities. Live the high life in an architecturally designed masterpiece or something a bit more affordable – totally up to you.
