FRIDAY
DAY TRIP OUT WEST + DINNER IN PONSONBY
9:00am: Breakfast and Coffee
Start the day off right with a yum breakfast or coffee! We recommend sitting down at Ozone Coffee Roasters in Grey Lynn (right next door is a lovely yoga studio as well called Basecamp Yoga if you're interested!) If you'd rather just grab a quick takeaway coffee, there are tons of places on the way to where you'll be hiking today. Some places we love are: Bowl & Arrow- Westfield, Eden Espresso Bar, and Atomic Coffee Roasters. Afterwards, hit the road towards Piha Beach for your adventure of the day!

Bowl and Arrow Westfield
@soltravelofficial
B&A is a hidden gem in Auckland! They are known for their guilt-free breakfast options - smoothie bowls, acai, juices, overnight oats + more. BUT - they also make a mean coffee! They get their beans from a local roastery, Espresso Workshop, and the taste is just *chefs kiss*
Pro tip: visit on a Wednesday to snag any hot coffee for only $3.
